There could be several reasons why they didn't vote. You do know that voter suppression is real. You do know that just getting a photo ID is difficult for a lot of people. You do realize that it's difficult for some folks to get off work to vote.

I would start with the non-voters that have voted for Democrats in the past. Reach out to them. If successful, we can craft a message that counters right wing propaganda.
