Not trying to knit pick you but that's not really unusual.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voter_turnout_in_the_United_States_presidential_elections

 

Voter turnout typically is between 45-60 percent.

There was a peak in 2008 with Obama at 57 percent.

2016 had 55.5 percent turnout. 

 

Election	Voting Age Population (VAP)[20]	Turnout[20]	% Turnout of

1956	104,515,000	62,027,000	59.3%
1960	109,672,000	68,836,000	62.8%
1964	114,090,000	70,098,000	61.4%
1968	120,285,000	73,027,000	60.7%
1972	140,777,000	77,625,000	55.1%
1976	152,308,000	81,603,000	53.6%
1980	163,945,000	86,497,000	52.8%
1984	173,995,000	92,655,000	53.3%
1988	181,956,000	91,587,000	50.3%
1992	189,493,000	104,600,000	55.2%
1996	196,789,000	96,390,000	49.0%
2000	209,787,000	105,594,000	50.3%
2004	219,553,000	122,349,000	55.7%
2008	229,945,000	131,407,000	57.1%
2012	235,248,000	129,235,000	54.9%
2016	250,056,000	138,847,000	55.5

There's that low turnout trend all over the world (of course there are exceptions). I know I have the same problem like many people in other countries do, there's just no one to vote for, with genuine trust and enthusiasm. But I regularly vote for the lesser evil.

I wish you a record-breaking high turnout, because it would be harder to manipulate the results. They couldn't just discreetly add some votes in crucial places to fix it, they'd have to do large manipulation and it would show.

According to republicans voter turnout this year is expected to be 167%.

 Bite your tongue. 60% in the US and 107% in Russia? I'll bite mine too.

Or because it doesnt really effect the rest of the article and the reporter was a bit too lazy to look it up.  The point still stands that in states Trump won by narrow margins the Republican party has registered between 2 to 3 times the new voters than Democrats have which should concern Democrats.  

How do you know it's 2-3 times the number of new democrat voters when you don't know how many that is?

Read what he posted more carefully.  New registered voters are registering as republicans at a greater rate than they are as democrats.

Read even more carefully: In states Trump won.

So it would sound like the Republicans are demanding their base to show their loyalty to the party by officially registering, and that base is so huge it's inexplicable how Trump could win these states with such narrow margin.

In other words, the "2-3 times higher" number does sound bigly exaggerated if not completely fake.

The article he quotes doesn't reference how many new voters are democrats.

So you cannot conclude that more new republican voters are registering than democrats.

No they're not demanding anything.  It just so happens that in these battleground states that trump won by a narrow margin in 2016 new voters are registering republican at about twice the rate as they are registering democrat.  This could actually mean nothing depending on a few factors like which voting district these registrations are happening.  If it's in a majority republican area it may not make a difference depending on state rules.

But it did not give a number for democrats or say 2-3 times more republicans than democrats. 

That appears to be entirely darkhunter's invention.

Did you even look at the second link from a local PA news site.  It's a bit older, 2 to 3 weeks older, but mentions how Republicans have registered approximately 140,000 new voters compared to Democrats approximately 58,000 newly registered voters.

Or if you want something from Pittsburgh there is this.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2020/10/09/republicans-gain-statewide-and-locally-in-voter-registration/amp/

From October 9, Republicans registered 150,000 new voters while the total amount of registered Democrats in PA dropped by 50,000.  

Doesnt technically give the number of newly registered Democrats but it still points to my point being true and should concern Democrats heavily.

Expectorate in one hand and speculate in the other and see which one fills up fastest.  Be patient, it will be Christmas soon enough, and whatever happens, we won't get that promised pony..

Trump banning "racial sensitivity training" alone outweighs all his "bad" deeds. So yeah, Trump is lesser evil.

Probably why I was specifically talking about the fox news one, don't you think?

So you claim I'm making up figures just cause the figures arent in one source but in the other.  I know traditionally you ignore stuff that proves you wrong but this is a new low even for you

[RavenHawk]

My Wife just got back from Florida.  St Petes, Tampa, Sarasota area.  She said that everywhere she went, there were Trump signs, Trump flags, Trump bumper stickers everywhere.  The family and friends she went to see says it’s like that all over the state.  I’m going to call Fl for Trump right now.  And I think the landslide has begun.

I pointed out fox news' bias, you then started making claims about 2-3 times, which you did not source.

Whenever you get round to proving me wrong, you can test that hypothesis.

Well said, Helen ..... hear, hear. I voted for Hillary in 2016. I held my nose, but I did it, and I’m proud of it.

Watching  Biden last night and now...it's just sad....he literally can't keep from slurring his words. People have joked about drugs but I'm leaning that way. This is not the Joe of old....any one voting for that Joe needs to think again. It's almost abusive.

He keeps slurring his words, with the wide eyed weird way he's jumbling up his speech....it just seems like there's something up. .i posted today while watching him again.  Go look at an old video of him. Even from the speech he gave at the Pentagon on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. This Joe is not that Joe.

90% of the real power is behind the throne, anyway. Maybe he’s on medication. Just look at Reagan who was demented for the last two years of his presidency. Are you going to try and tell me that he wasn’t a good man? He was a very good man, and the country didn’t falter under his command.

This is not a choice between political parties, this is a choice between life and death. The Power of Heaven does not shy away from a good fight, nor will it now.

Jesus was is a liberal in His day. “Don’t kill the prostitute, she’s just trying to make a living,” is a liberal message. The conservatives were saying, “kill her.” Humanity, at it’s best, is who we are, not some whack job living in a golden palace in New York. 

Joe Biden could be on life-support, and I would still vote for him.

I already proved you wrong you just literally refuse to acknowledge a link but since you do here it is again.

It's the second link in post number 36, right under the fox news link.

From the link to the news site itself.

"Since the primary back on June 2, Republicans have registered 135,619 new voters, according to the latest campaign statistics made available by the Pennsylvania Department of State. Democrats have registered less than half of that, with 57,985 new voters. And it's not just this summer. From Nov. 2019 to June 2020, Republicans out-registered Democrats 44,965 to 32,829."

From the PA state government itself.

https://www.dos.pa.gov/VotingElections/OtherServicesEvents/VotingElectionStatistics/Pages/Voter-Registration-Statistics-Archives.aspx

That links to a page of the PA state website where voter registration data for June 2020 can be downloaded and it shows 4,092,693 registered Democrats and 3,290,944 registered Republicans.

https://www.dos.pa.gov/VotingElections/OtherServicesEvents/VotingElectionStatistics/Pages/VotingElectionStatistics.aspx

This link to the PA state website has a downloadable excel file for voter registration as of October 13, 2020.  It's the first link on the site.  It shows 4,186,050 registered Democrats and 3,475,336 registered Republicans.  

From June to October 13 the Democrats have registered 93,357 newly registered voters while for Republicans its 184,392 which is approximately twice as many newly registered voters.

I have no doubt you will continue to ignore this as you traditionally have ignored everything that proves your wrong but I have no problem to keep rubbing your nose into this.

Are Mexicans a 'race' ? 

Oh come now, I think 'racism' is overplayed. It's true that one of the candidates has made racist comments, but I think that Joe Biden has recovered from that  

MOST interesting. Well, ONE of those professors are about to lose their perfect prediction record

I dont put much into predictors, each has their fool proof system and several this time have said trump is done, but yeah, some will be right some wrong,

I could be wrong but my "system" predicts biden will win and by just enough that trumps hissy fit tantrum wont be tolerated by gop and when gop says trumps done hes done, no amount of radicals "standing by" will change that.

I predict even mcconnell will tell trump to move on.
