    The state’s highest participation race in a presidential election took place in 1992, when 76% of eligible voters cast ballot. In 2020, about 63% of registered Alabama voters participated.

    Damn that’s depressing.

    Trump had 15 million less votes than then he did in the last election and he still won the popular vote, voter turnout was abysmal

    Trump has less votes than he did in 2020 and he still won the popular vote, and if you tally of all the votes there is 15 million less votes overall

      He is currently at 72 million and in the last election got 74 million. This is the third comment in a row that I’ve had to say this. Where in the world are people getting these ridiculous numbers?
