Non-Voters

  • The caption says " since we didn't bother voting, no one we voted for lost." This caption was use to depict the mindset of many people who don't vote now a days.
  • You have a T.V, elderly couple. I think the artist use these symbols to portray a section of non-voters who have the kind of message that voting doesn't effect them.
  • The elderly couple is watching television at home while sitting on the couch. Probably a broadcastong about the current election.
  • The message of this cartoon is that people in todays society don't really bother with voting. They think it is irrelevant to them and that voting won't help them.
  • This cartoon to relates to the lack of voter participation of todays society. thats all we have been talking about in class for the past week is how people don't try to vote especially younger people. while older people who may want to vote sometimes can't get taken to a voting both for several reasons.
  • Irony is used very well in this cartoon. one reason is because you usually see the older people become more politically active as the grow older. But in this cartoon its the older people who don't care to vote which is usually the portraial of the younger generation.
