@Boddhisatva@vividspecter there was massive voter suppression this election. It’s been mounting for ages but even worse this time. Loads of mail-ins chucked out; bomb threats; voter roll purges. A lot of people tried to vote (or even now, think they did) but were turned away or their votes weren’t counted. Even on those numbers, things look sticky for Trump. https://www.gregpalast.com/trump-lost-vote-suppression-won/
This was the first election, since I came of voting age, that I didn’t receive a voting pamphlet that told me about all the individuals running and where my voting site was. I had to go out of my way to look up my county’s ballot measures and to find my voting location. To say I extremely upset about this, is an understatement.
