Many users do their work in the projects but do not care about politics, so they dont vote.
The primary purpose of the membership is to have a well-defined group of voters, so those who don't vote probably should not be members anyway. They can perfectly work on openSUSE without being members.
Beside of what others have stated in between, voting would be the least reason for me to join an openSource community. If thats your target, you better go to politic parties. I think its more the spirit of community, maybe showing commitment and appreciation of the work being done. Bringing a project, based on shared ideas, towards a common goals. Having 'shorts tracks' to other members in terms of support and communication, compared to coming from outside. Building trust in people, even you may know them just from mailing lists or the OSC. Similar as you may not just play or watch football, but as well join a club.
