    I think in swing states, the turn out was greater than in 2020. Harris got more votes than Biden. But, obviously, Trump got more than Harris. People who sat out in 2020 came out for Trump. Following what you’ve shared, it’s because they saw Trump as the option that caused less pain.

    All of this makes sense to me. I don’t know how the voters who sat out in 2024 would have otherwise come out for Harris.
