All well and good, but remember the Blue Steal is Real.

Also not counting Bernie and the 50 other challengers' votes in the cumulative.

Also not considering Operation Chaos voters like me, who got Dem ballots and pulled the lever for Bernie, just to keep the DNC primary shitshow going a little longer.

Yeah but a bunch of Bernie supporters and other leftist morons would never vote for Biden. I know some will vote Trump for various reasons.

And this point could be made for all those elections. The primary votes for the incumbent are more of a statement and show great enthusiasm and support.

Yeah I couldn’t imagine anyone who’s amped up to vote for sleepy joe. If anything he’s an embarrassment. It mind boggles me how he won the primaries. The Dem party must be extremely weak and desperate right now.

You have a very good point, but it occurred to me that you would also have to take into account the challenger's votes in the opposing party's primaries of those other elections, too. So I did some digging and here's what I found.

1956

Ike Eisenhower: 5,008,132 votes (85.9% of total)

Total Republicans: 5008132 / 85.9 × 100 = 5,830,189 votes

Adlai Stevenson: 3,069,504 votes (50.7% of total)

Total Democrats: 3069504 / 50.7 × 100 = 6,054,249 votes

1972

Richard Nixon: 5,378,704 votes (86.92% of total)

Total Republicans: 5378704 / 86.92 × 100 = 6,188,109 votes

George McGovern: 4,053,451 votes (25.3% of total)

Total Democrats: 4053451 / 25.3 × 100 = 16,021,545 votes

1996

Bill Clinton is a rapist infowars dot com: 9,706,802 votes (89% of total)

Total Democrats: 9706802 / 89 × 100 = 10,906,519 votes

Bob Dole: 9,024,742 votes (58.8% of total)

Total Republicans: 9024742 / 58.8 × 100 = 15,348,201 votes

Very very interesting! What we can see is that not only did the opposing party have a higher combined vote than the incumbent candidate, but a much higher vote than the incumbent party. Yet still the incumbent always won. So it doesn't seem to matter that much about the combined party vote. This suggests that the primaries reflect enthusiasm, which is a very strong determinant of the final outcome. Now let's look at [current year].

2020

Donald Trump GEOTUS: 18,032,651 votes (94.06% of total)

Total Republican: 19,171,434 votes

Joepedo Biden: 17,660,139 votes (50.66% of total)

Total Libcucks: 17660139 / 50.66 × 100 = 34,860,124 votes

These numbers look pretty similar to '56 and '96 elections. The key difference is that very high in-party approval rate of 94%. If the primaries do indeed indicate enthusiasm, then that's some very high enthusiasm indeed!

As we always say here, DO NOT GET COMPLACENT. That's not what I'm driving at here. But I don't think the opposite of complacency is necessarily fear or panic. How about enthusiasm? That should be our angle. The fear of the other guy can be Democrats' schtick. But Trump's real advantage right now is the ENTHUSIASM of his supporters. So, don't get complacent, but don't get afraid either -- get fucking excited!!!

How can you have a civil country with people you can't trust to have a fair election? They didn't accept the results of the last election. The level of depravity, corruption and evil these people engage in needs to be exposed.

This. It doesn't matter what the vote really is - if the Dems are the ones counting the votes we will lose. There are great many on the right that believe the left acts in good faith and cares about the integrity of the vote. People like Romney. These RINOS threaten Western Civilization.
