But that labors the point: since there are less crossover voters than before, due to increased partisanship, the only way that there can be any sort of sway with the amount of registered Democrats in crucial states is through turnout differentials. And the core reliance of turnout was whether or not a candidate was good enough to get voters to the polls.Its hard to compare voter registration from decades ago to now. Voters have become more and more partisan. Voters flipping from party to party each election and/or voting for one party for senate/congress and another for president were a lot more common before.
This year is a little different than most though. A lot of dems aren't happy that Biden won, their happy Trump lost.
The "I hate the president" vote has never worked. Ask president Kerry or Romney this.
