" #WhatHappened ?"
In 2016, #VoterSuppression (led by manipulated #SocialMedia) caused a lot of people to not vote, sure that Hillary was going to win, because Trump was too vile for people to vote for.
In 2020, despite the pandemic, over 81M people voted.
In 2024, was our own faith in the voter turnout-- the belief that not enough decent people would vote for him, that she was SURE to win, so "we don't need to vote"-- once again our downfall?
Were #VoterSuppression campaigns (aimed at people upset at the Biden admin's policies regarding #Isreal & #Gaza) responsible?
Regardless of WHY fewer people voted, the fact remains that FAR fewer people voted.
Admittedly, the final numbers are not in yet. But they ARE close enough to see "what happened."
It was NOT misogynistic #MAGA who came out in greater numbers. Trump actually got FEWER votes.
The biggest voter loss was with the #Democrats, who were 89.3% of 2024's "absent voters."
