Voting is every citizen's right, responsibility, and civic duty. Yet many people don't vote, for any number of reasons. In this "Rock the Vote" video, UC Berkeley's Asian Political Association addresses why many people say they don't vote.

How do some explain their voting behavior? What factors influence voter participation? What are some ways candidates might appeal to non-voters?
