I very much doubt that Eurid "simply assumed" that because a registrant resides in the UK, they are not an EU citizen. These registrants probably had to validate whether or not they are EU citizens, and didn't respond to the

Yeah. Compared to the rest of the world, the entire left half of the political spectrum is more or less missing in the US. The democrats are a center right party. The republicans are at this point, a far right party. It has been a deliberat
