Democracy sucks if no one is exercising their democratic minimum duty; to vote. This will lead to smaller groups being able to mobilise easier for their agenda. Also happens one level up in Germany or Australia - lack of volunteers for judiciary committee or duties opens the door for right wing or other nutters that are organised and push into these openings.

I was quite surprised by the strength of opinion on this one, but now I see the numbers it makes more sense. Those that hated the public scooters turned out, but nobody loved them enough to turn out and vote in support.

As they say, History is made by those that turn up (or somesuch).
