Summary

The recent U.S. election saw a significant Democratic underperformance, with Kamala Harris drawing 1.4 million fewer votes than Joe Biden in 2020, while Donald Trump gained 1.1 million additional votes.

Nationally, Democrats lost more votes than Republicans gained, but in key swing states like Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, Trump’s gains outpaced Harris’s losses, securing his victory.

In many counties, Democratic votes dropped sharply even where Republican gains were modest.

Higher turnout in swing states, driven by Trump supporters, was a crucial factor in his win.

        Scroll down to the bottom of the page and please try to math better if you’re going to respond again. This is getting frustrating.

          When get around to it. Meanwhile, you can tell me how these missing votes change Trump’s ceiling or Harris underperformance. You are only changing conditions, nothing more,

            This is what I said:

            Y’all really need to stop quoting these numbers as if they’re anything but preliminary.

            Don’t put words in my mouth.

                    Fact: Millions of votes have not been counted.

                    Fact: You’re physically incapable of admitting you were mistaken by several orders of magnitude.

                    Facts don’t care about your feelings. Read more carefully next time.
