Is this someone who is registered but doesn't vote? Or is it someone who is eligible to register but hasn't? I always hear this in terms of voter turnout, and I thought it was the former. Does anyone know for sure?
 
Anyone 18 or over that hasn't been convicted of a felony and is a US Citizen by birth or naturalization is considered an 'eligible' voter.
 
As for the term used by the media, I assume it means those who meet the state's criteria to vote. When they refer to registered voters, they actually say registered.
