a lot of votes for 'not trump' as opposed to 'for biden', not so hard for a portion of society to understand, very similar to voting trump in 2016 it was a vote against hilary, sometimes people vote against things they despise, i guess more people disliked trump than liked obamma

Why are you even comparing 2008 statistics with 2020 statistics with such poor context?

The US is only growing at 1 million per year at best. If it wasn't for immigrants we would have a negative population growth rate.

I wonder if the United States voting population increased or decreased too. Probably less, what with the Georgia Rockpile initiatives about depopulation.

In this election I think the death rate would be more relevant in accounting for voter turnout.

I appreciate you probably can’t see it due to your red tinted glasses, but maybe it’s a measure of how unpopular the incumbent President actually is.
Although his numbers beat Obama’s from 2008, so probably just a measure of how divided the U.S actually is.

A LOT of people who have never voted before, got off their asses and voted this year against Trump. Millennials and gen-z outnumber boomers and gen-x now, and most of these generations are progressive. It's not really hard to figure out.

So 12,000,000 people can't account for the increase? Kind of proves my point.
Add in ease of mail in voting and it's kind of obvious how both of them had higher numbers.

Really? Then how did Trump get the second most votes of a president in history this election? LOL

Could be...10 million difference in voter population from 2008 to 2020 and about a 10% increase in turnout from 2016 that could be due to the lazy non-voter now voting by mail.
I'm not a fan of the mass mail-ins and I think a person should put in an ounce of effort to keep us all honest... I see it ripe for fraud in the form of vote harvesting the lazy non-voter votes..
