It's difficult enough (maybe impossible) to get a large chunk of the electorate to educate themselves about the issues once every 2, 4, or 6 years. You expect them to stay constantly up-to-date rather than choosing rational irrationality[1]?

No. I expect people to only vote on issues that they find pressing. By perhaps spending a replenishable "voting score".
