Summary
The 2024 presidential election saw record-high turnout nearing 2020 levels, with over 152 million ballots cast.
Donald Trump won both the Electoral College and the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes, defying conventional wisdom that high turnout benefits Democrats.
Key swing states like Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania had increased turnout, with Trump outperforming Kamala Harris in battlegrounds despite her strong voter mobilization.
The GOP’s focus on early and mail voting, as well as targeting infrequent voters, proved effective, signaling a shift in Republican turnout strategies in the Trump era.
They never talk about percentages of eligible voters because it would be obvious that nobody wants any of these creeps and this “democracy” is a total sham.
Seriously I’ve tried to google this information historically. It’s not easy. I saw a zine about this a few years ago but I can never find it.
The VEP is the third highest since 1900, only behind 2020 and 1960. This is an extremely high turnout election
