As part of FiveThirtyEight’s “Why Millions Of Americans Don’t Vote” project, we reached out to voters (and non-voters) across the country to find out more about their thoughts on politics in general and about this upcoming election more specifically.

Here is our interview with Thomas, a Republican voter in Maryland who is voting for Biden in 2020.

While you might not agree with all the views expressed here, we hope you will see that these are real people wrestling with big decisions about the part they want to play in this democracy.
