Only 18% of the population live in swing states though. Assuming an even distribution, that's < 1.5 million votes.

- throwaway_law 7y agoI think that is a fair point (although certainly we wouldn't find even distribution of these people across the States, but I can't provide the statistical breakdown). However, 8 Million is the potential voting block of people who have already defaulted on their student loans...there are a total of 44.7 Million people with student loans who all would be interested and benefit from loan forgiveness/abatement. To put those numbers in perspective it it just exceeds the number of elderly voters on Medicare (44 Million).
- huherto 7y agoThere are still many issues to vote on. Also, if you live on a red state vote for a moderate. Try to influence the primaries.
