voter apathy

Why don’t people vote in elections even if they have in other years? Is it their income/financial stability or things like education, health care status that makes people decide to vote in a certain election? Or is it the weather?

ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: You hit the nail on the head with the topic of your question. When people are apathetic, it takes special efforts to make them do something for others, the masses, sometimes even themselves.
Excuses, well, there are always plenty of those.
