    Well like 30% if you base it on election results.

      I don’t understand, didn’t trump win the popular vote? Or is turnout only like 50% in the US?

        In fact, Trump has NEVER won a majority of the popular vote.

          I know people love to repeat that on social media, but he did technically win the popular vote.

          Harris: 75,017,613

          Trump: 77,302,580

        The overall turnout of eligible voters in the 2024 general election was 63.7%.[1] This was lower than the 2020 record of 66.6%[2] but higher than every other election year since at least 2004.
