The mystery of the missing votes: 2020 vs. 2024
American Thinker ^ | 12/23/2025 | Bradley Steffens

Posted on 12/23/2025 9:50:26 PM PST by SeekAndFind

The recent admission by Ann Brumbaugh, attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, that 315,000 illegally certified votes were included in Georgia’s 2020 final vote totals, has once again raised the issue of the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election.

After the 2024 election, the New York Times published “An Extremely Detailed Map of the 2024 Election,” showing a rightward shift in precincts across the country.  Commentators have explained this as a surge in Trump’s support.  But the map tells another story: The real shift came from a dramatic drop in Democrat votes between 2020 and 2024.  That decline and reports like the one from Fulton County raise troubling questions about what really happened in 2020.

Kamala Harris received 6.2 million fewer votes in 2024 than Joe Biden did in 2020.  Trump’s vote total rose by about 3 million from 2020 to 2024.  That leaves more than 3 million votes unaccounted for.  Did millions of Biden voters simply stay home?  Or were a large number of 2020 ballots never legitimate to begin with?

Adding to the intrigue, the Election Lab at the University of Florida reports that the voting-eligible population (VEP) grew by 4 million between 2020 and 2024 but turnout fell by 3.4 million.  More Americans were eligible to vote in 2024 than in 2020, but fewer ballots were cast.  That is unusual.  Historically, a growing electorate produces higher turnout, not lower.

Vote.org reports that more than one million new voters registered before the 2024 election.  Tufts CIRCLE found that Harris carried the youth vote by 4 points, 51 to 47%.  Assuming that figure held for new voters, most of whom were young, Harris underperformed Biden by even more than 6.2 million votes seen in the raw vote total.

The historical record makes the 2020 voting surge stand out even more. As the chart below shows, turnout as a share of the VEP jumped to 65.3% in 2020 — the highest in modern history — before slipping back to 63.9% in 2024. That spike, followed by a decline — despite a larger VEP — is an anomaly that demands explanation.

Since this data is coming from Georgia, that Brad guy should be splashed with it. It was his job to make that vote count pure and we might want to step forward and splash the governor as well.

Both are swamp types and the GOP has no need for them

There was a higher turnout in 2020 because COVID resulted in a lot of relaxation in absentee voting requirements. People too lazy to actually go to the polls were willing to vote if less effort was required.

Prior to election day 2020, Democrats pushed absentee/early voting very hard, and it paid off. A lot of Republicans - rather foolishly - took the position that you couldn't be sure your vote would be counted unless you actually went to the polls. Conspiracist stuff like pro-Democrat mail carriers would deliberately losing GOP ballots, etc..So, there was no corresponding GOP push for absentee/early voting.

There was some fraud as well, but there was also a very real difference in how hard the two parties pushed early/absentee voting. Heck, I think Rush even argued against absentee voting.

Bullshit. Joe Biden no more won that election than you did.

A simple explanation is that that many Dims were so depressed by Biden’s senility and Harris’ stupidity that they couldn’t drag themselves to the polls.

How dare you suggest that Biden’s 2020 Election “Victory” wasn’t legitimate. You ought to be thrown in jail for being a threat to Democracy. Just wait until President Harris sends her FBI to your house, What. oh wait, Harris isn’t President!? How!? We had that election in the bag too. Oops, I didn’t say that out loud did I?

"... a large number of 2020 ballots never legitimate to begin with..."

Well DUH!

Certainly the missing votes are due to the truckloads never delivered this time...

Did you wonder why it took so long for the networks to call the states when DJT had huge leads with 90% of the anticipated vote already counted?

We now know that they were simply waiting for those promised trucks to, once again, deliver a stolen last-minute victory for the American Communist Party...

Better believe that somewhere there were truckloads containing another 3,000,000 pre-printed, and pre-voted ballots that will have been collected and burned, by now...

People too lazy to actually go to the polls were willing to vote if less effort was required.

Or their votes were "harvested" or made to varying degrees for them. There's a point at which an individual or organization "helping" a person (such as in a nursing home) to vote clearly crosses the line from helping to acting on their own interests. A person who is incapable or disinclined to make the effort to vote themselves probably shouldn't be part of the electorate when all is said and done.

I’m sure that had an effect in 2016, a lot of Dims couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Bill Clinton’s wife.

The fact is that there were many fake ballots that were counted.

Trump won Georgia, and the Georgia Governor Kemp and the Sec State Raffensperger were in on the grift.

So what next? Accountability ?

The Dems election steal cabal got sloppy casting 81 million votes. It was far too many to be believable.

It’s good that the 2020 election steal is unraveling. We’re getting close to naming names. A good place to start is with the participants in the pre election war game and the corrupt judges who denied Trump ballot audits and dismissed cases based on standing.

“... a large number of 2020 ballots never legitimate to begin with...”

Thanks to millions of mail-in paper ballots that:

1) virtually no verifiable chain of custody,

2) envelopes that clearly indicated which party the enclosed vote was for,

3) etc.
Mail-in voting for the in-this-country able-bodied must be illegal.

Now add in RCV machines changing votes during an algorithm triggered recount. RCV usage must be declared illegal.

Add a voter ID requirement to this.

The country simply cannot consider itself to be one of the advanced countries without this.

Would it be possible to examine exactly who didn’t vote this time around. It would be a big job, but I’d bet a lot of phony addresses would be discovered. Shopping centers, abandoned office buildings etc.

Zero doubt in my mind that fraud similar to Georgia’s mysterious 300K votes occurred in other metro areas.

Trump was viewed as evil incarnate which made it OK —even patriotic—to cheat.... with no fear of ever being caught.

They overplayed it giving Donald 4 years to plan. Thankfully.

We do need to remember always, that these 315,000 “illegal votes” being discussed in Atlanta-Fulton County in the November 2020 election were “not all” illegal, immoral, nor fattening.

Recognize that Trump trailed Biden by less than 12,000 votes in the democrat’s final count.

This WAS an explicit certification and verification step that ENABLED an unknown number of bad ballots and duplicated “vote-by-mail” drop-off ballots to be counted. How many were legitimate? Conceivably, every one of them “might have been” legal votes by eligible and unique voters each of whom was a legal voter.
Or 300,000 of them might be legal votes.
Or 275,000.
We will never know for certain.
We do know that these verifications and the physical “loss of control” of the certification process OPENED THE DOOR of the safe during the bank robbery. Left it open open overnight. Left it open for weeks.

Rat’s (who really was “merely” following Kemp’s orders) ignored many dozens of more serious flagrant errors and coincidences throughout that night and the following three weeks. ALL of which fell into line adding votes and certifying votes into Biden’s column.

Dems didn’t vote because they had nothing worthwhile to vote for.
