General election voter turnout for the 2014 midterms was the lowest it's been in any election cycle since World War II, according to early projections by the United States Election Project.

Just 36.4 percent of the voting-eligible population cast ballots as of last Tuesday, continuing a steady decline in midterm voter participation that has spanned several decades. The results are dismal, but not surprising...

How, pray tell, does this give GOP "bragging rights?"

and that is a boy named Brown. His death has had an impact not just in this country, but in
other countries as well. Don't know if the victim of murder has ever been name, but wouldn't be suprised.
