The Untold Story Of America's Non-Voters

The biggest block of the electorate isn't usually part of the political discussion. The reason: They don't vote.

A massive group of people in this country who qualify as non-voters.

A new study from the Knight Foundation looks at the untold story of non-voters, those who don’t vote and are generally disenfranchised from the political process. Who are they? What do they think about the 2020 race? And, perhaps most importantly, why don’t they vote?

The Show spoke with Evette Alexander, director of learning and impact with the Knight Foundation, to get some answers to those questions.
