Answer 1

lmao!!!

government homework!!!!

I'll see can I sum it up for you....

Education is one major factor that determines voter participation!

The  more educated a person is, the more likely he or she will go to the polls.  

Income is another demographic...the poor usually have low voter turnout.

Age.  Older people vote more often.  they have more time. etc.

religion..usually religious organization stress civic responsibility, especially evangelical Christians.  these Christians want more votes for them so that they can get more legislation...

There are l lot more..

........

Some reforms have been the election day,(where you drive up ) and vote or register on the spot.....look up Motor Voter, and Same day registration....

The general participation is ...i would say somewhat depends..overall, I'd say we do a little over average..compared to other nations...you see. in America, we are not forced to vote, as in countries such as Australia, you have to vote or you get fined!!! Another reason why we don't usually vote is because we are content with the current administration and we don't want change..my point is, lower voter participation doesn't mean that we don't care...heck, look at how we campaign!!!!!!!! there are many levels of civic participation...it's just Americans don't usually follow through on the voting level!
