What is going on everyone? Do you hate politics? Do you avoid people that live and breathe
politics? If you said yes you should move to one of the states on this list as we learned
in our what's destroying america video most people think that politics is killing this country more
specifically the political zealots these are the people that can't quit talking about politics if
you don't vote the way they vote you're obviously insane or you hate the country look at any video
on youtube about almost anything and you'll see someone in the comment section is blaming
a political party for something what you'll also notice is that they all have a word or a phrase
that they use every single month over and over what happens is they'll see some political person
that they admire or they follow and they'll use a phrase or word and then these people get on the
internet and they just use the same word or phrase ad nauseum some of my favorites were your bias is
showing that was a big one for a while hubris was another one then we got fake news and of course
the deep state these are words and phrases they all have to inject into every comment section
if all that nonsense is something you really want to avoid then these states are the best states
for you because these states have the fewest politically engaged residents they have the
lowest voter turnouts hardly anyone shows up to town halls with their elected officials and they
all have the highest percentages of residents that say they don't follow politics got it get it good
let's take a look number 10 hawaii why would you follow politics in hawaii i mean there's so much
fun stuff to do that'd be the last thing on my radar is politics but in hawaii they really don't
follow politics and a lot of it has to do with most hawaiians don't care about politics because
they really wish they weren't in the united states the ones that are happy that they're in the united
states are the ones that retired from the mainland there talk to almost any hawaiian they'll have
some gripes about being part of the united states in the 2020 election cycle only 68.6 percent of
eligible voters actually voted if you look at both ends of the age spectrum you have 21 of the 18 to
24 year olds voted and 60 of the 64 year olds and older to give you an idea how low that is virginia
is the state with the highest turnout in some cases 60 percent of their 18 to 24 year olds
showed up and the 64 and above was 73 percent number 9 new mexico there's a few states in this
country where the residents really need to start paying attention to politics new mexico is one of
them that state needs to make some changes they have for a long time they have one of
the highest poverty rates they have one of the highest rates of residence on public assistance
and a lot of that state has some serious crime issues 68.2 percent of eligible voters actually
voted in the 2020 election 40 percent of the 18 to 24 year olds voted and 74 of the 64 years old
and older new mexico is another state where most the residents don't trust the government
number eight alabama the yellow hammer state is a southern state and one thing they all
have in common they hate the government a lot of us kind of judge people and rank people by
what they do for a living in alabama they see their bottom three as sleazy used car
salesmen drug trafficker politician and it shows only 68 percent of eligible voters
actually voted in the 2020 election 42 percent of the 18 to 24 year olds and only 66 percent of the
64 and up crowd voted number seven utah utah is a strange state because when it comes to the federal
elections they really don't get involved but these people are very involved in state and local
governments they show up for town halls for those people things like that when it comes to their
senators their congressmen and who's running for president i don't think they really care too much
and it sort of shows also 67.4 percent of eligible voters voted in 2020 43 of the 18 to 24 year olds
voted and 75.2 percent of the 64 years old an older crowd number six south dakota south dakotans
just don't show up to vote that's all there is to it and i think a lot of it has to do with
their environment i mean it's really cold around november when you're supposed to vote and south
dakota gets really cold and on top of it they got a lot of rural areas it's hard to get to the polls
if you have to now they can request a mail-in ballot in south dakota it's a no excuse one
meaning you don't have to have a reason you could just request one and get one and they don't really
do that too much 67.3 percent of eligible voters in south dakota voted in the 2020 election only 25
of the 18 to 24 year old eligible voters voted in the 2020 election that's the lowest on this list
74 of the 64 years old and older crowd did vote number five west virginia
west virginia politics have you know i mean they've got a long history of dysfunction one
thing i do like about west virginia politics is their governor jim justice this man's incredible
first of all at the beginning of the covet he was doing a press conference and he dropped an
f-bomb on like statewide television of course that made it go national television everyone
had that one he tried to blame it on a glitch in the software that runs the microphone or something
but then just like last month or whatever he held up his dog's butt yes at the state capitol
in front of cameras he held his dog up upside down towards the camera it's a bulldog named baby dog
and uh he showed it and then invited bette midler out to west virginia to give it a kiss
i'm not even joking only 67.3 percent of eligible voters in west virginia voted in the 2020 election
32 percent of the 18 to 24 year olds voted and the 64 and older crowd only 63 percent of them voted
number four oklahoma oklahoma always seems to show up right next to new mexico when it
comes to poverty and number of residents on public assistance they're always right next to each other
crime oklahoma's doing much better but most things when it comes to poverty and people going hungry
it's kind of big in oklahoma oklahoma like south dakota has a lot of the same landscape i mean
they've got a lot of rural areas people don't get in to vote whatever the case may be they're not
as cold as south dakota and they're also a state that has the no excuse absentee voting meaning
they just gotta ask no excuse needed they still don't get to the polls too often and they should
67.2 percent of eligible voters in oklahoma voted in the 2020 election 33 percent of
the 18 to 24 year old crowd and 70 of the 64 years old an older crowd voted number three
florida florida i thought for sure election day would be like fever pitch for these people
you know 90 turnout people standing in line for hours to vote holding signs wearing hats
t-shirts all that stuff election day in florida i really thought it would be like a super bowl of
politics for these people but no about 33 percent of the registered voters there don't even bother
showing up to vote 67 percent of eligible florida voters showed up to vote in the 2020 election only
37 percent of the 18 to 24 year olds did and 69 of the 64 and older crowd showed up at the polls
and florida is another state where they have no excuse absentee voting you just gotta ask
number two nevada well this one kind of makes sense to me i mean i think people in nevada
worry about other things than what's going on in politics they never just seem to be in the front
of any political story or anything like that i mean anyone that follows politics can probably
name a few other senators and congressmen you could you know name a lot of them i'm sure but
i think the average joe that's not livid in nevada couldn't tell you who's running that state i don't
i have no idea and i kind of consume political stuff i just went to see who their two senators
are i've never even heard of these two women looked at their congressmen never heard of any
of these people either their governor never even heard of that dude either i grew up in
southern california so i'm the next state over growing up and now i live in oregon one of the
states that share their northern border still never heard of their people only 66.2 percent
of eligible voters in nevada voted at the 2020 election 42 of the 18 to 24 year olds and 73
of the 64 and older crowd voted all right before we get to number one don't forget we have another
channel called on this day there's a link down below and if you want to help out this channel
make sure you give this video a big thumbs up and if you got time maybe the suggested videos
at the end of the video maybe you can watch one of those for us all right on to number one
and number one arkansas wow who saw this one coming arkansas is a lot like nevada i don't
think a lot of people know what's going on there politically since bill clinton left
and their people really don't care arkansas leads the country and mistrust towards the government
they're number one in that and they're number one of people not showing up to vote i think those two
have something to do with each other i could be wrong while i was researching this video i got way
down that rabbit hole of learning about different things in politics and their voting trends this
one man who had worked on campaigns over the years said that back in the late 80s there was an
election where they had a county in arkansas that had like 1100 people in the whole county only like
200 people showed up to vote that is what you call a horrible turnout but in the 2020 election only
62 percent of the eligible voters in arkansas actually showed up to vote now throughout this
list we started off with hawaii at 68.6 showing up right and then we went all the way down to
number two nevada was 66.2 so in nine entries we only moved the needle two percentage points now
you drop four almost for this one 62 percent of eligible voters in arkansas that's insane 34 of
the 18 to 24 year old crowd showed up and 67.30 of the 64 years and up crowd showed up to vote
all right that's today's video hope you guys enjoyed it hope you got some information out
of it now go out have a nice day remember we're all in this together and be nice to each other
