  c. It would not change anything, since nonvoters are as evenly divided ideologically as voters.
  d. It would favor third-party candidates, since nonvoters are alienated and more likely to cast a vote for a third party if they do vote.
  e. It would favor independent candidates, since most nonvoters are independents.
