I mean, maybe there is another Matthew Walther in Three Rivers, Michigan (pop, 7,905) *also born in 1990* (via @kendrawrites.bsky.social). (Seriously tho, the NYT should amend the article to note that this guy does, in fact, vote).
Wait, he registered November 3, 2020 (if this is him)? Sooooo, perhaps to make sure he could vote in that election. It’s not like he just registered in January or August or whenever.
There are only 2 registered voters named Matthew Walther in the state of Michigan and the other is in his late 50's. This one voted only 2 times in MI, the 2020 and 2022 generals, but apparently moved from the DC area. I bet he voted there too.
Wrote that he wouldn't vote again in 2019, was an "ex-voter:" theweek.com/articles/802... and then what do you know, he voted the very next year, then two years later: voted again. Then almost two years later, a barely rewritten article saying he definitely won't vote this time, honest
