minus-squaresplinter@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 months agoThis a good reminder that not voting is also a political position. I think your math is a little bit off though. There were ~244 million eligible voters in 2024. 75,017,613 voted for Harris*, which gives us ~169 million that allowed this to happen. *The only other viable candidate, like it or not.

minus-squareZagorath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 months agoIt’s more like ~170 million. That’s the population that didn’t vote for Harris (i.e., voted Trump, voted third party, or did not vote) despite being eligible to vote.
