What % of US voters in the 2024 Presidential Election are "low information"?

Never closes

Less than 10% ("low information" voters are not a significant threat to functional democracy)

10% - 25% (while some voters are "low information", the vast majority are well-informed)

25% - 50% (A frightening amount, but not the majority, of voters are "low information")

50% - 75% (The majority of voters are "low information")

75% - 90% (Most voters are "low information")

90% - 100% (Democracy is non functional as is. Then what's the alternative?)

Define "low information" however you'd like, but I would generally say voters who make irrational decisions that are based on little to no information.

"Information" is subjective since supporters of each candidate likely believe most of the other candidate's supporters are low information with only a small group of "evil/cynical" high information voters who know their preferred candidate is deeply flawed but support for personal gain.

Questions for comments:

Would the United States be better off if "low information" voters (magically) didn't vote?
Is the term "low information" inherently discriminatory or is there a clear and concise definition?
Supposing "low information voters" make democracy dysfunctional, what's a better solution for governance?

Yes.
Low-information = lacking knowledge about political philosophy, economics, and political issues, and this describes nearly everyone.
