NJ is higher than I thought it would be
What could be causing these disparities?
My first guess would be median age, as old people have a higher voter turnout, but then why are FL and WV in the bottom 10?
Maybe it’s the ease of voting in each state?
Nevada, the swing state with the lowest voter participation at 61.5%, Wisconsin has the highest of the swing states at 73.6%.
nice chart
but isnt stating *”citizens 18 years or older”* unnecessary?
I had no idea that Florida was so low.
I recommend making the bottom 10 ascending. The lowest score should be the first in the list.
These are actually fantastic turnout rates and are the best they have been in decades.
It’s pretty disappointing to see Nevada and Utah below 65% when they conduct all mail voting. All a person would have to do is fill in the ballot and drop it in their mailbox.
So many people choose not to vote and then complain about the results.
Wouldn’t have guessed Arkansas was the least
2020 was a huge year for turnout even compared to 2008. Turnout was huge in 2020.
Mississippi is the one that’s most interesting to me. It has an extremely high African American population, presumably leaning more Democratic. One would expect a closer statewide race with such a high voter turnout.
Almost amusing how my deeply red state that is a formality has more turn out percentage wise than multiple swing states that get millions and millions of dollars in campaign ads dominating their media.
There’s a lot of juice left in that fruit.
Idea: National Lottery. $1 goes in the fund for each person who votes. 140 million goes in, one voter gets all.
Some of the mail-in ballot states are embarrassingly too low.
I would also like to see average county turnout per state.
And I’d like to see percentage by party per state and per county
If 69% is the national average, how close to that national average is each county for each party?
Surprised Mississippi is so high, especially when compared with its neighbor Arkansas
VOTE. It’s so easy. Just make sure you REGISTER.
To be 100% real… Mississippi looks kinda hinky to me, here.
Arkansas sucked. Within an hour of getting on the ballot, the Democrat running for Senator dropped out, leaving the position unopposed.
Also the first person on the ballot for president was Kanye because they drew randomly.
publicans should boycott this election, there is no one worth voting for…….💡
