And of course they don't vote because they think that no one will listen to them anyways?

That could be the #1 narrative from here on out: Democrats are "hard to organize".

What I don't understand is why non-voters say they favour someone yet fail to vote. They should be aware of the election and most seem to have a preference. Why don't they vote then? Confounding.

Because they feel their vote doesn't matter (if the race is tilting against their guy), or they are disillusioned/unenthusiastic with their guy.
