More crybabies that cant even be bothered voting but want to lecture people. Over 40% of Americans didn't vote this time, but everyone wants to complain.
Who really cares if people vote or not? Voting is not mandatory last I checked and everyone has a right to complain if they did or didn't and like the article states, no one but themselves know if they voted in this election. So get over it.

Agreed, no one has to vote, and all have an unfettered right to complain as an American citizen.
However, I'd think you'd have to admit it's strange to complain when you don't have a strong enough option to get off your duff and make it to the polling place to put your opinion on the ballot.
Imagine you're with a group going out to eat. They ask you for your opinion as to what you're in the mood for. You tell them you don't really care, or you're to busy to answer this question, or you need to have your hair cut first before you will concern yourself with other trivial matters. So you end up at a place with food you hate....and you're belly aching at the table the entire time about how terrible the food is here, and how another restaurant would be better. How much should the others diners in your party be concerned about your complaining when you refused to voice your opinion before things were decided ?
Common sense really. You have the right to complain, I'll give you that. I also have the right to dismiss you to some degree since I got off the sofa and make my way to the polling place to vote, while for whatever reason, you couldn't be bothered (perhaps far to busy organizing your sock drawer) to exercise your right to vote at the appropriate time and place.
Many of the protesters also never voted. Typical liberal and thing for hypocrites.
