Like 9-10 million votes are yet to be counted.

In every swing state except PA. There was record breaking ballots cast. In PA it was close to the record. She lost the election because bad policies not people not showing up. People changed their mind in the 6 swings states. Idk why or what for but this election wasn't lost because of 10 million people not voting it was lost by my calculations 275,092 votes in 4 states.

I'll wait until the count is over to check if she earned more votes in the 6 swing states than biden in 2020. But lots more votes to count again like 10 million yet to be counted almost all in states that are pretty much decided so they didn't make a difference anyway

Crazy how mail in voting was universal in 2020. Then we had states pass a slew of laws to make it increasingly difficult, and turnout slumped.

Second highest voter turnout in any US presidential election on record. Both by numbers and percentage of eligible voters.

Yep. Appears America is just that stupid.

People got a clue after 40+ years of Lucy yanking the football away at the last moment.
