I undertstand the exasperation, but the reality is that there is significant dropoff for down-ballot, and especially non-partisan, items on the ballot, particularly when they're on the back side of the ballot. This is especially true in presidential election years -- so many people vote for president and then consider themselves done -- and it seems to be more pronounced in certain demographic groups, including younger voters.
