A survey by the market research organisation Survation looked into why people don't vote:
The main reason for not voting is people "don't believe my vote will make any difference".
Actually their missing votes make a huge difference. Elections are decided by people who don't vote. Election figures show that no party since 2001 won more than a quarter of the electorate's votes.
Ironically, despite being the voters who decide elections, people who don't vote are never the winners.
