As an aside, for really large populations, it would probably be socially optimal to only have a small fraction of the population voting (at least if we ignore things like legitimacy, feeling of participation, etc). As long as that fraction is randomly sampled, you could get good statistical guarantees that the outcome of the election would be the same as if everyone voted. South Korea did a pretty cool experiment where they exposed a representative sample of 500 people to pro- and anti-nuclear experts, and then let them decide how much nuclear power the country should have.
I don’t think this is why CDTs refuses to vote, though.
