Counted Out: The Nonvoters of 2020
The 2020 Election showed a historic turnout across the country. According to The Election Project, 66% of eligible voters cast their ballots in the election. However, a large number of individuals still decided to stay home and not vote. In partnership with IPSOS and NPR, the Medill News Service team launched a survey to understand why these voters did not vote. In a special podcast, hosts Cheyanne Daniels and Jay Silver look into the reporting behind the scenes of the Medill News Service and attempt to understand why these voters chose not to participate.
