The “low information voter” means a citizen who votes based on other values besides the best information and facts. The acronym “LIV” was used by 2008.
 
“LIV” was replaced with “LoFo” (low information) in January 2013.

A LoFo voter just Tweeted Bret Baier “Who was Neville Chamberlain?” Bret politely answered then asked, “If you can Tweet, can’t you Google?”

All the progressive movement in this country and around the world wants is to control everyone and everything even those people(read useful idiots) who agree with them. BTW those who agree with progressives are known as the LoFo voters.

Point well taken. The LoFo’s (low information voter) are a huge problem and the fact that Washington is buying their vote with “free stuff” is a problem.
