    According to Ballotpedia, no American state in the period 2002-2018 has ever achieved a turnout rate of 80% or higher.

      That guy needs to go on a statistics course before he starts throwing around words like "standard deviations" and "statistical impossibility".

      This isn't a random process. If you make it much easier for people to vote, you shouldn't be surprised if a lot more people vote.

      I was only joking

        @George-K - the state of Wisconsin puts their turnout at 71%, which is less than 2004.

        The reason is WI uses same day registration, and it is quite popular.

        So they measure 'turnout' by % of voting age population. It's worth noting that the very graph you posted is using WI data and calc method (%voting age population) for all of the data points except the last one.

        The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

            As it is, Biden/Harris already got well over three and a half million popular votes more than Trump/Pence. The majority of voters do prefer Biden/Harris.

              Trump claimed he only lost the popular vote in 2016 due to fraud.

              He was a sore winner as well as a sore loser.

                    It's their state, but nobody should be allowed to register on election day.

                      It’s perfectly legitimate to ask to see those registrations....

                              George - where did you get that info?

                              This is from county.milwaukee.gov:

                              You can't see the heading, but the first number is Biden second is Trump:

                              Screen Shot 2020-11-05 at 9.03.48 AM.png

                              Same site, registration vs votes cast:

                              Screen Shot 2020-11-05 at 9.05.28 AM.png

                              Interestingly I found a file from the Wisconsin elections site from 11/1 showing registrations by ward and the numbers were already higher than the ones in your graphic. And that obviously can't include same-day registrations.

                                Kimberly Strassel tweeted it. Here's the link she tweeted (it was in my post as well). I know nothing of this source, or it's reliability, btw.
