The 50% voter turnout is because of lack of faith in the ability for voting to change anything. Push these people to organize.
Plus the difficulty usa puts on people who want to vote. See Texas and constant removal of voting locations.
Or how Republicans love to remove locations from college campuses, or the lack of will by either party to extend voting to more than a single day
