    THE QUESTION
    Did Wisconsin have a record-breaking 89% voter turnout or higher in the 2020 election?

    THE ANSWER
    No. While the number may change slightly with final results, the real voter turnout is closer to 71%, not 89%.

    WHAT WE FOUND
    Data on the Wisconsin Elections Commission website shows that the first five elections in the claim are mostly accurate.

    The charts show the following voter turnouts:

    2000 - 67%
    2004 - 72.9%
    2008 - 69.2%
    2012 - 57.8%
    2016 - 67.34%

    But the 2020 number in the claim is actually achieved using a different formula than the one Wisconsin uses.

    To get 89%, the claim takes the current votes cast in Wisconsin this year and divides them by the registered voters in Wisconsin.

    So that’s 3,240,268 votes cast among 3,684,726 registered voters, which equals roughly 89%.

    But that’s the wrong equation to use, at least in Wisconsin.

    It clearly states on its site that “Wisconsin does not calculate turnout based on the number of registered voters.” Instead it uses the “total voting-age population.” That’s anyone in the state above the age of 18. For 2020, Wisconsin says that number is 4,536,293.

    So let’s run that math again with the Wisconsin formula for voter turnout. We keep the same total voter count, but instead of dividing by registered voters, we divide by “total voting-age population.”


    That’s 3,240,268 votes cast among 4,536,293 voting-age adults.

    That equals roughly 71%, a number that is much closer to the past turnout numbers in the state.

    In fact, there were only 200,000 more votes cast in Wisconsin in this presidential election than in the last. A total of 3,004,051 voted in Wisconsin in 2016. So the total votes cast in Wisconsin this year isn’t that ridiculous given record turnout nationwide.

    Rod Blagojevich, former Illinois Governor and a Democrat is being interviewed on NewsMax. (Paraphrasing here)-----if the question is whether votes are being stolen in large Democrat led cities, the answer is, "Is the Pope Catholic?" He said it's widespread in large Democrat led cities where they control the voting apparatus and the media will just ignore it-----

    Obamas vote total is a higher% of 2008's US population size than Trumps is of 2020's US population size genius
