    It’s not that they failed to show up in '24, it’s that the '20 numbers were inflated by generous vote by mail rules due to covid restrictions.

    Following '20, Republicans became TERRIFIED of vote by mail, because they know they’re outnumbered and the more people vote, the worse it gets for them.

    So they took steps between '20 and '24 to restrict vote by mail. I was telling everyone to expect a lower turnout, everyone is blaming everything except the obvious: Making it easier to vote gets more people to vote.
