If you look at the historical voting data, presidential election participation has been up since 2004. Mid-term elections have been about the same since the 70s, though 2014 did have unusually low participation. But I don't expect that to repeat in 2018 with all the divisiveness now. http://www.fairvote.org/voter_turnout#voter_turnout_101 http://www.fairvote.org/voter_turnout#voter_turnout_101
