Ultimately a LOW turnout vote by Dems; Harris 16 million less votes than Biden
- Thread starter uihawk82
- Start date
in retrospect this election ended up having far less to do with the two candidates compared to the two platforms. i think if you switched harris (with all her personal attributes intact) as the R candidate and ran Trump (with all his attributes as is) as the D candidate — harris would be our President. imo. rapist or felon did not matter nor did black or woman— they simply did not figure at all into the equations this time.
I am not a conspiracy theorist.
I am also not a mathologist.
Can someone please help me make sense of these literally unbelievable numbers? Because the 2020 election sure doesn’t add up now.
2020 Popular Votes
Biden 81.3 million (51.3%)
Trump 74.2 million (46.9%)
Total: 155.5 million
2024 Popular Votes
Trump 71.1 million (51%)
Harris 66.2 million (47.5%)
Total: 137.3 million
18.2 million people just decided to sit this one out?
2020 US Population: 329.5 million
2024 US Population: 345.4 million
So 18.2 million less votes with 15.9 million more people?
What am I missing?
That's not happening. The GOP loves some good strawman culture war BS to knock down. And enough idiots in this country buy it.
Because ballots were mailed to everyone during Covid, making it much easier to vote and increasing turnout.
That was easy. Got any other brain busters?
It has zero to do with her being a woman. It has to do with her being an idiot
Because they weren't real votes. They were pre-printed and they arrived in semi truck loads
So...you think all those bomb threats in primarily Dem leaning areas was just a coincidence?
I don't know if you're ignorant or stupid or both!
I think there was a lot of apathy this time. With 2020 people were highly motivated to get rid of Trump. 2020 was a complete disaster and Trump was, well... Trump.
This time there was a lot of "both candidates suck" vibes with people vowing to abstain and a general perception that the economy is bad. That's the difference.

This tells me Dem's have nothing to complain about. They didn't get out and vote. Heck even Trump got less votes. Covid mail in's sent out or not, your telling me that 18.2 million people couldn't do mail in's again? Or go out and vote?
Bro you sound like a petulant child. There were hoax bomb threats that caused some delays. They didn’t cause 4 and a half million people to stay home. In two of the states (Georgia and Michigan there were record turnouts). Your super lib channels are barely reporting on it cause it was so obviously a non factor. Your girl lost because the majority of the country didn’t have confidence in her ability to lead the country. That’s it and that’s all. As your boy Biden said today, love your country win or lose. It’s going to be a great 12 (gulp, I mean 4 years) Wer’re gonna Make America Great Again!
Of course! It’ll be pretty easy for Trumps 2nd term to be better than Biden’s 1st term. Take a breath, crack a beer and watch the Hawks trounce Stanford this weekend (Jacori Teemer’s Hawk debut in Carver), you’ll feel better. 😉

On the contrary, Trump has his work cut out for him. At least he was handed a booming economy which helps.
