Washington State just had the worst voter turnout in a midterm election since the 1970s.

But hey, at least we're doing better than the nation as a whole. Nationwide, voter turnout was its lowest in 70 years.

I could offer some theory or other as to why this is happening. But odds are at least half of you (if you're registered-to-vote Washingtonians) and about two thirds of you (if you're registered-to-vote Americans from some other state) were non-voters in this election.

So you tell me: Why?
