I'd guess that a higher proportion of anarchists vote than do liberals. Anarchists tend to be very engaged and use every tool they can.
The people who don't vote are mostly the disengaged or indifferent, and aren't going to hear complaints.
Most radical leftists make the point that voting is ineffective. That's not the same as refusing to vote on principle. It doesn't entail not voting. It's a criticism of the lack of doing anything else.
