    And that’s just as a percentage of registered voters

    The 33.4% is out of every 18+ adult in America that has registered or could register to vote.

    174 million are registered

    57 million are unregistered

    231 million total.

    77.3/231=33.4%

    340.1 million Americans in 2024

    77.3/340.1=22.7%

    So 22.7% of total Americans voted for trump. But that’s counting babies, children, and young adults.

    Also trump won the popular vote in 2024 so the electoral system wasn’t the cause. Rigged or poor system yes but he would have won without the electoral college.
