I agree with Linda Chavez, the chairman of the Center for Equal Opportunity,
with the statements that she made about the 2016 election on "Texas Insider". Her point was
basically not to blame both of the candidates and blame the people that didn’t
vote and are registered to vote. She pointed out a couple facts and some good
arguments on the people, who was eligible to vote but didn’t. she stated that
the more voters there will be, the better chance the right president being
picked.
Within the past
elections, we’ve all know and heard that undecided voters get a little attention
and we don’t think they matter at all. According to the author, the reasoning
of many undecided voters in this year election is because most of them think
that both candidates are not fit to be the next president of the united states.
Linda is criticizing this group of people and the rest that are simply too lazy
to vote because she believes that all votes matter, which is true. According to
CNBC “The poll of 801 registered voters conducted
June 11-14 shows Clinton with a 40 percent to 35 percent lead.” This means
that out of this 801 people, 25 percent of them are undecided to vote for each
candidate. And out of this 25 percent, more than half (14 percent) aren’t going
to vote.
"A New York Times analysis of the 2012 elections found that around 40 percent of undecided voters were registered
Democrats or Republicans, and that 94 percent of them (in both groups) voted
for the party with which they were registered." This is the kind of
voters Linda would blame because they are voting for the party that they
support instead of the candidate they think deserves to be the president. The
authors credibility is well shown because her arguments had purpose which
states, if we want to have a better outcome after the polls are closed, then we
should not have this many undecided voters.
