I'm not seeing turnout down by 20m. Where are you seeing this data? Note, we haven't even finished counting all the votes.
Admittedly, I was expecting there to be overwhelmingly high turnout and there wasn't that from what I've seen.
The dude won the popular vote. I'm sure a lot of the shady bullshit that happened all around the country to suppress voting inflated his lead a little bit but I don't think it was substantial enough to explain this.
Nearly every news outlet has reported record voter turnout, but look at the vote counts from 2020 vs this year.
Wait until all the ballots are counted. Ballots still being counted aren't in those totals but, obviously, they finished counting 2020. Shit, California is still like 60% counted at this point. And they're at 10 million votes counted... that's like 6.5 million more votes just estimating CA.
