Its a nice theory, but the people who stand in line saying, "the majors are as bad as each other, i'm gona send them both a message", kind of undermines the idea.

I'd say it'd be a more uniform shift down in lower turnout than you've suggested across the political spectrum. But interestingly it'll be of the more moderate sections of each political side. Thereby over time reducing the points of commonality between the Party's resulting in increasingky hateful political partisan rhetoric and policies. So what has happened in the USA.
