We have an electorate that doesn't always pay that much attention to what's going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or truth or what's happening.

Summary

This quote suggests that the electorate, or the group of people eligible to vote, is often not fully engaged or well-informed about political affairs. Instead of being guided by facts, truth, or an understanding of current events, people are easily swayed by simplistic slogans or catchy soundbites. It implies that a lack of attentiveness and critical thinking among the electorate can lead to the influence of empty rhetoric rather than a focused consideration of substantial information when making political decisions.
