It’s interesting.  Trump got slightly less votes- or about the same.  But there were about 14 million less votes against him.
I've read some folks on the Left claiming voter suppression was why Trump won.

some would say it's tough to get those extra 14 million votes when the rules have been tightened up and enforced

If you alienate your own constituents by being mouthy dip shits, that might be some kind of suppressing the vote.

We really should wait until all the votes are counted to muse about voting totals, I think.  One can look at just California, where I would think there was little incentive to "cheat" on a large scale, for vote tallies and whether anything untoward happened anywhere.  It's a least suggestive.

Of course, maybe there was some massive effort to create vote for Biden in CA, but I doubt it.

I cite CA because there would be little incentive to have massive fraud there this time and not others.  Biden got more than 3 million votes more than Obama did in 2020.

If you think someone fabricated those excess votes in a state firmly in Biden's camp, well, I'll just disagree.  The higher turnout in my view was a simple result of COVID and steps taken to make voting easier.  I also think a lot of folks, like me, were turned off by both candidates.

For sure.  And a lot of folks hated Trump and voted for him.  Variety of reasons I am sure- but mostly feeling things have gone way left into bizzaro world and country needs to move back some.  Our country has an uncanny ability to do that in elections.
