Tthat is the figure put out there by USA Today.Wisconsin had more than 3.6 million registered voters heading into Election Day, and more than 3.2 million Wisconsinites voted in the presidential race
That chart if for Massachusetts just put in up to show that the population vote fluctuates from 50 to 70 depending on the year and election years when there is a presidential election it is usually higher.Wisconsin in 2016 had 3.378 million votes cast according to your chart.
This is higher than the 2016 turnout of 67%, but lower than 2004 figure of 72.9% from that same fact check. It clearly is not an impossible or improbable turnout.when you divide the number of votes cast in Wisconsin — 3,278,963 as of Nov. 5 — by the voting-age population in Wisconsin (4,536,293 as of 2019, according to the elections commission), you get a turnout rate of 72.3%.
This is the explanation from the USA Today fact check you posted in your original post:
So Wisconsin was at 2,787,820 in 2016 at 67 percent or registered voters and now jumped to 3,399,992. p(Please Note: This uploaded content is no longer available.) and jumped to 3,300,000when you divide the number of votes cast in Wisconsin — 3,278,963 as of Nov. 5 — by the voting-age population in Wisconsin (4,536,293 as of 2019, according to the elections commission), you get a turnout rate of 72.3%.

George was already at 76% in 2016 which is very high and now gained 1 million more voters. It also hasn’t voted Democrat only one time for Clinton since 1984.(Please Note: This uploaded content is no longer available.) .(Please Note: This uploaded content is no longer available.)
In Georgia, 2016 the voter total was 3,967067 at 76% of registered voters which is very high for voter turnout.
in 2020, that vote jumped 1 million more to 4,971, 342.
Georgia has seen significant growth in recent years. Much if that growth has been in the Metro-Atlanta area, where 50% of the population of Georgia lives. The Metro-Atlanta area leans blue, and was blue in the last election. If you watched the news coverage, you will have heard that a lot of Biden’s votes that were still being counted came from Fulton, Clayton and Gwinette counties. I know Clayton was trending 86% Biden.George was already at 76% in 2016 which is very high and now gained 1 million more voters. It also hasn’t voted Democrat only one time for Clinton since 1984.
I think Trump has done a great job of motivating people to the poles!in 2020, that vote jumped 1 million more
The population of Georgia has not changed. It was 10.3 million and now is 10.5 so population went up by 200 thousand not enough to bring about a 1 million voter change.Georgia has seen significant growth in recent years.
That is growth.The population of Georgia has not changed. It was 10.3 million and now is 10.5
What is the relevance of this data point? Many of the people voting in Georgia for 2020 are not the people that voted in Georgia 40 years ago.Again it has not voted fora Democrat presidential candidate since 1980 only once in 1992.
730,000 of which moved to that blue area on the northern side (src).The state of Georgia did not have major population growth. It grew by 200,000. It got 1 million new voters.
Thay isn’t relevant.The map pretty red
| County | Population | Cumulative |
|---|---|---|
| Fulton | 1,041,423 | 1,041,423 |
| Clayton | 285,153 | 1,326,576 |
| DeKalb | 753,253 | 2,079,829 |
| Gwinnett | 920,260 | 3,000,089 |
| Cobb | 755,754 | 3,755,843 |
| Douglas | 143,882 | 3,899,725 |
| Fayette | 112,549 | 4,012,274 |
| Forsyth | 227,947 | 4,240,221 |
| Henry | 225,813 | 4,466,034 |
This is not relevant. The election counts the people, not the areas.The blue are metro areas but still, there are many Republicans in those areas.
That’s false.These major jumps in new voters happened in the remaining 7 seven states and that is why they would like recounts which makes sense.
I only point it out to show the potentially faulty interpretation of “look at all that red.” The surface area of the red is not informative. Inferences made from it on the popularity of a candidate are faulty.It does not matter where people moved within the state.
You guys just need to stop.So where did 1 million new voters come from in Georgia. This is the first time they have allowed mail in voting and legal voters are feeling cheated.
I’m not concerned with their predictions. They have no bearing on the outcome.The map is used by pollsters to figure out areas for potential voting habits.
I think that would be true if it were not for all these mail in ballot that no one trusts - 1 million new voters, who are they and why have they not chosen to vote in the past.elections.in Georgia - alone.I think prople have to come to understanding that for this election the country had a strong compulsion to come out and vote and that is something to celebrate
Many young and older people who have not voted, are now practicing their civic duty. We have had the largest turnout for an election in history. That should be celebrated.
They certainly did not have them right because it was predicted as a blue wave, that did not happen.I’m not concerned with their predictions . They have no bearing on the outcome.
