Let’s look at the presidential election results of the last 3 elections.
We want to compare the popular vote results to understand where the voters are coming from.
2012 Obama vs. Romney
Obama goes for his second term as America continues to lose it international prestige. Obamacare that we all are paying for is already enacted at this point.
2016 Clinton vs. Trump
This year was a year of a sudden Brexit success in UK. Trump win in November was a second big surprise of the year. Trump is 70 years old at this point.
2020 Biden vs. Trump
In COVID year 2020, country started to experiment with electronic vote, and we can see 25 mil more voters appeared out of thin air. Biden was 78 and Trump 74 years old.
2024 Harris vs. Trump
Plausible explanations of Trump success are a complete failure of immigration policy, post-COVID inflation, instability in the Ukraine and Israel, Elon Musk push to help. What else? Biden uncomfortable fail at presidential debates? Assassination attempt? Please note that Harris attracted more votes that Clinton in 2016 (66 mil vs. 65 mil).
After 5 days of counting, Trump is finally getting over the number of popular votes he gained in 2020 elections – 74.2 mil. For Harris so far, it is 10 mil. less votes than Biden in 2020. For me it means that either 10 mil less people voted this time, or 10 mil extra mail-in votes were sent during COVID-19 hectic elections:
As of November 18, 2024, the total popular vote count reached 153.1 mil. That is still 5 mil votes lower than the COVID 2020 popular vote when the mail-in vote was seriously tested for the first time. Just a reminder that 2020 presidential election total popular vote count was 158.4 mil. As votes being counted in California, the gap between Harris and Trump is slowly shrinking. Now it is less that 3 mil votes.
