"Also, the fewer people that vote, the fewer people it requires to make change happen." I believe that when only a few people vote, the incumbent usually gets in (that's what I remember from my campaign volunteer days anyway). In order to affect change you need to get new voters out. - Rusty

True, you do need new voters, but what I'm saying is you need to get fewer of them out.

As a grassroots movement a large group of apathetic voters unhappy with the incumbent and a small group of voters supporting the incumbent would be preferable to the other way around. Would it not?
