Live election results, and analysis of the 2024 General elections.
per Decision Desk, it looks like trump won. I’m starting to see a few outlets like NBC call Pennsylvania for trump, too.
as a trans woman, i’m fucking terrified.
yeah, if you voted for trump this election, after everything over the last ~9 years, you’re fucking evil. straight up evil. lots of people, worldwide, are going to suffer because of this as the world falls deeper under the influence of fascism. take care of yourself, take care of your loved ones, form communities, and be prepared to fight for your lives. we’re going to need each other if we’re going to to make it through this

Just a question: Where can you see the voter turn out rate in this and possibly past elections? I can’t find that.
Past elections are on Wikipedia. And this one will take a while to pull the numbers together, but it’ll be added in the coming months.
Ballotopedia has past years, but I haven’t seen any info for this year yet.

I’ve heard rumors of low turnout, but I suspect it is around 60% based on previous years.
Edit: WaPo says 65% this year. Can’t find anyone else reporting on it.
