I think in this situation it is probably more important to look into why more than half the population chose Trump.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Probably because most voters want someone that reminds them of their dad as the President.

Check the statistics for white women :)

Yeah, i think i'm swearing off white women too. It would be tough because i'm white as fuck but i'm considering it.

God, the whole of Lemmy is such a meme right now; the majority of women voted Trump as well!

Lmao!...

I think the ones who didn't vote for Harris are desperately rationalizing to blame Trump on somebody besides themselves.

The majority of White women voted for him 53% to 45% (not sure what percent of those are in the evangelical christian demographic).

Women overall voted against him 53% to 45%. Funny how those numbers were the exact opposite. Anyway it was a smaller margin than Dems were hoping/expecting from women.

Yeah but only 39% of bears voted Trump.

no, 20 million Americans withheld their votes.

that greasy orange fuck actually lost votes.

2020 had some of the easiest voting rules in US history, with universal no excuse mail in.

Democrats were more likely to mail in votes than Republicans. So (largely Republican) states cracked down on mail in voting shortly after the election.

The participation plunge you're seeing is largely the result of that decision

Turnout was still pretty high compared to historic numbers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

So far second highest recorded turn out and it will be weeks for the final number. Keep in mind spoiled ballots will get added at some point (to the turnout count not to actually count)
