The US is not a democracy

The winning candidate in the 2024 election was "none"

"Didn't Vote" could as easily be "Any/All" as "None". Also discounts the voters who were legally disenfranchised or otherwise discouraged from participating.

Hence "not a democracy". Voters don't pick their politicians. Politicians pick their voters.
