A lot of early analysis of the 2024 presidential election has suffered from three overlapping problems.
First, that vote margins can be influenced by changes in turnout as well as changes in vote preference. If voters stay home, the candidate they would have supported receives fewer votes. And it looks like a lot of 2020 voters stayed home in 2024.
But — second — not as many as one might have thought in the first few days after the election. Many immediate analyses of what happened exaggerated the decrease in Democratic votes or suggested that Donald Trump won an outright majority of votes cast, both errors that were a function of failing to consider (particularly) California’s sizable, slow-to-count vote total.
The third problem is that the shift to Trump in the voting — real and widespread — is being conflated with broad support for Trump, which is far less dramatic. It’s the difference between noting that exit polls show Trump fared much better with voters under 30 than he did in 2020, and acknowledging that he lost that age group to Vice President Kamala Harris. He didn’t lose them by as much, but he still lost them.

Nobody stayed home.
11 million fake mail-in ballots didn’t show up this time.
AND, without the 2024 Big Steal, we’d have 2 or 3 more Republican Senators and 4 or 5 more [or more!] Republican Representatives!
And I wonder frankly if the Rats even thought of bothering with stealing it for Kamala.
Oh yeah, Biden’s fictitious 81.000,000 votes, right....
Biden didn’t get 70,000,000 votes, much less beat Barack Obama’s numbers.
Biden did NOT win the 2020 election, period!
Bump has the political analysis skills of a doorknob.
Joe Burden was installed, not elected.
Trump has done more for America in the last two weeks than Biden did in four years.
It is more so. Trump’s consisted of real voters.
Well, you know, all votes must be counted!!!!
Well, you know, all votes must be counted!!!!
One day voting
ID required
paper ballots
no absentee or mailin votes
and votes only accepted if turned in within 12 hours of the polls closing
and No exceptions for real or false excuses.
Remove the steal and Trump’s is far better.
I would be open to in person voting on two days if it’s argued some people won’t be able to get there on the same day.
But this voting for weeks or months before the election, is ridiculous.
One day. So soon as allowances are made for any ‘special circumstances, the camel’s nose is under the edge of the tent and the rest of the camel will inexorably follow.
