The elections of 2018, 2020, and 2022 boasted high turnout rates, with the 2020 presidential election reaching the highest rate since 1900 at 66%.
Despite voter alienation towards parties and candidates, historic trends suggest that disdain might not necessarily depress turnout in the presidential election.
Current voter disinterest in the 2024 election, fueled by negative views of Biden and Trump, reflects a nearly 20-year low in engagement, according to NBC News.
Historically, a high turnout of 75.8% was recorded during the rematch of elected presidents in 1892, highlighting that policy differences and excluded debates do not always deter engagement.
