Nick Fuentes thought he was having a great week last week on Weds. Seems the tide has turned.

They both seem to be losers...

2020 was a pandemic election. Special rules made it easier to vote. Higher turnout favors urban voters, the disabled, Democrats.

2024, increased election security, lower turnout, favored Republicans.

Wasn't the lower turnout in the Blue enclaves?

It's pretty simple, and you know it.
When I lived in San Franciscoin 2008, there were a decent amount of precincts but the city has 800,000 people. When I went to vote, I had to wait in line for 30 minutes or so.

When we moved to Healdsburg for 2012, there were 2 precincts but for a town of 10,000. When I went in to vote, there was nobody else there.

You can bloviate all you want about civic duty and do what you need to do in order to vote, but this is a simple statistical problem. If you make it twice as hard to vote, some percentage of people won't be able to get over the hump and cast that ballot. And the GOP knows this, and will go about designing rules that make it easier to vote in GOP leaning areas than Democratic leaning areas. The results will follow.

Aside from my prior post, face it, there was less of a case for Harris vs Trump than Biden vs Trump, from a view from space.
There are always a lean against the incumbent when things are bad, and things were bad in 2020. Doesn't matter whose fault - Trump's fault, CHINA's fault, Fauci's fault. Doesn't matter. Things weren't as bad in 2024, expensive eggs aren't as bad as COVID.

Swing and soft voters in 2020 showed up to dump Trump because he was making everyone miserable. 70 million decided that Biden would be even more miserable, but that didn't win the day.

By 2024, the argument that Harris was going to be substantially better for them than Trump wasn't really apparent. We'll see. Trump's not off to a good start.

In relative terms, voter turnout nationally in 2024 was 63.9 percent. That is below the 66.6 percent voter turnout recorded in 2020, which was the highest voter turnout rate in a U.S. presidential election since 1900.
Quote
Wisconsin holds the place of pride as the state with the highest voter turnout in 2024—76.93 percent of eligible voters in the Badger State voted. Five of the six battleground states that switched from Biden to Trump saw their turnout exceed the national average; only Arizona (63.6 percent) was below, and then just barely. Hawaii holds the distinction of being the state with the lowest voter turnout. Just 50 percent of Hawaiians voted.

By the numbers: Just 1,018,359 (67.9%) of Chicago's registered voters cast ballots this month, the second-lowest turnout for a presidential election in 80 years. In 2020, that number was 73.2%.

Voter turnout across Illinois was 59.6%, down from 72.9% in 2020.

Based on the most recent estimate, a little over 16 million Californians voted in the 2024 election. If this number holds, it would mark a significant decline in turnout: roughly 1.7 million fewer ballots than 2020, despite 550,000 more registered voters and 1.8 million more eligible residents.

According to Associated Press elections data, more than 153 million ballots were cast in this year’s race between Republican Donald Trump, now the president-elect, and Democrat Kamala Harris, the vice president, with hundreds of thousands of more still being tallied in slower-counting states such as California. When those ballots are fully tabulated, the number of votes will come even closer to the 158 million in the 2020 presidential contest, which was the highest turnout election since women were given the right to vote more than a century ago.

They make it harder for Democrats to vote in Texas for sure.
