“Provocative just in its title alone, Sharon E. Jarvis and Soo-Hye Han’s Votes That Count and Voters Who Don’t: How Journalists Sideline Electoral Participation (Without Even Knowing It) is more insightful than the usual complaints about American politics devolving into a horse race in an echo chamber.”
