mainstream poli sci data re. above is based on two types of questions - one is opinion about political issues, some research on this indicates that there isn't much difference between voters and non-voters, second asks non-voters who they would have voted for in recent election had they done so, not too difficult to recognize problems associated with both approaches...    michael hoover
