Chances Are 43.4 Million Won't Vote This November
In this UPI report from Washington, about 113 million people are eligible to vote for president, with 43.4 million expected to stay away due to indifference and belief that elections won’t change power. The piece explores the nonvoter profile, political disengagement, and differing voter habits, citing studies from Michigan and surveys by Martin Sures and Ronald Silver. It notes that Republicans are typically more faithful voters, while independents and weak partisans swing between camps, and ends with a contrast in male and female political interest.

The Senate defeated by 34 to 25 an attempt by Sen. Strom Thurmond to attach an anti discrimination rider to Johnson's foreign aid bill.
