These are all estimates from preliminary research in the internet.
US population as of right now (2012) is approx 315,000,000
minus Population of minors (76,000,000) = 239,000,000 eligible adults
minus felons and non citizens approx (20,000,000) = 219,000,000 eligible voters
minus people that are not registered at all (?????) = unknown
Total votes cast for the 2012 presidential election = approx 118,000,000.
So there are about 100,000,000 people out there that are just not voting or not registered.
53.2% of Eligible voters voted: 27.2% Obama 26% Romney.
The 50 states are divided into 435 congressional districts, and the registered voters of each district elect one of the 435 U.S. Representatives. Each U.S. Senator, of which there are two from each state, is elected by the registered voters of his/her entire state.

Elegible and registered
There are 207,643,594 eligible voters in the U.S. The census bureau estimates as of July have the US total population at 303,824,640. As of the 2006 general election the Voting Age Population (all adults) was 225,964,346 whereas the Voter Eligible Population (adults - ineligible people like felons or non-citizens) was 207,643,594.
According to the Washington Post, "Overall, turnout in the midterm elections was projected at 42 percent of registered voters, about 1.2 percentage points higher than in 2006." (It should be noted that even though there was a slightly larger turnout than in 2006, about 58% of voters stayed home.) Also, according to most polls, the makeup of the electorate this time was different: there was a large "enthusiasm gap," such that Republicans voted in larger percentages than Democrats did; also, younger voters decreased, as did minority voters; and older voters, as well as white voters, came out in larger numbers than in 2008. 82.5 million people voted, many of whom were spurred by anger over the lingering recession. But it is worth noting that this number was far fewer than the more than 131 million people who voted in the presidential election of 2008-- generally, presidential elections bring out a much greater number of voters than midterm elections do.
