In December, I posted data that make me skeptical about the integrity of the 2020 election. This is an update with new data.
In the December analysis, I reported that 158.4 million voted for US President but based on an estimate derived from the Current Population Survey (CPS), only 158.1 million were registered. Impossible. The CPS didn't have current data in December. Now they do, and they report that 168.3 million were registered in November 2020. This stunned me since the CPS estimated only 153.1 million in November 2018, so total registrations increased 15.2 million in only two years, 2018-20. For context, here's the total number registered by year since 1968:
Total number registered to vote (in millions)
1968 86.6
1972 98.5
1976 97.8
1980 105.1
1984 116.1
1988 118.6
1992 126.6
1996 127.7
2000 129.5
2004 142.1
2008 146.3
2012 153.2
2016 157.6
2018 153.1
2020 168.3
The biggest four-year increase was 2000-2004 with 12.6 million additional registrations. Such a big increase makes the 10.7 million 2016-2020 plausible, but it's weird that the total went from 157.6 million in 2016 down to 153.1 million in 2018, then it increased 15.2 million in only two years, a bigger increase than any 4-year increase since 1968! Weird but possible. By the way, the margin of error for the CPS is less than a million.
168.3 million registered people in November 2020 means 94.1% of registered voters voted for President. Election experts say that 90-95% of registered voter voting is indicative of election fraud. Countries like Australia that mandate voting can't get 94% of registered voters to vote.
For context, here are the percentage of registered voters who voted going back to 1960:
Percent of registered voters who voted
1960 107.8
1964 95.1
1968 89.4
1972 79.8
1976 77.7
1980 76.5
1984 74.6
1988 74.5
1992 71.2
1996 65.9
2000 67.5
2004 70.0
2008 89.8
2012 84.3
2016 86.8
2020 94.1
The years 1960 and 1964 look screwy, but the only other year that looks suspicious is 2020. I'm still not convinced that there was not enough funny business to change the election outcome.
By the way, according to CPS, 154.6 million people said they voted. According to the official count, 3.8 million additional votes were cast.
