I think this is misunderstanding that federal figure as being percentage of registered voters, when it seems to actually be percentage of citizens 18 and older.
The 2020 presidential election had the highest voter turnout of the 21st century, with 66.8% of citizens 18 years and older voting in the election
I think your right on point. The rigging was based on using the votes of anyone eligible to vote whether they were registered or not.
Saying 91.7% of registered voters turned out is hard to believe, but 66.8% of eligible voters turn out sounds more plausible.
Calculating this as a percentage of registered voters is not accurate because many people register on election day and would not be included in that count. For example, large percentages of 18, 19, and 20-year-olds who voted for the first time.
My understanding is this data is based on the Census Bureau asking people if they voted and if they were registered to vote. That would capture day of registration.
These data come from the 2020 Current Population Survey Voting and Registration Supplement for the November 2020 presidential election, which surveyed the civilian noninstitutionalized population in the United States.
