Stick with me here because I did this research and math, sitting on the couch, with my phone. So, feel free to ask questions.
In 2018, there were 153M total voters registered. But now, in 2020, there were more than 155M votes cast. Obviously, it is possible that there were many new voter registrations between now and then. Studies showed Republican new voter registration was outpacing Democrats. These voter rolls are a mess. What percentage of the voter rolls are inaccurate? What percentage of voters voted?
Estimate with 153M control:
• 8% (very high estimate)(12.2M) (2020 new voter registrations study research source below) new voter registrations = 165M 2020 registered voters
• 10% (low average estimate) (source (12.5%) below) (16.5M) inaccuracies on the voter roll = 148.5M 2020 ACCURATE registered total voters
• 148.5M 2020 ACCURATE registered voters < 155M individual votes cast in 2020 General Election
Conclusion: Estimated 6.5M more votes cast (104.4%) than registered voters in 2020

SAUCES:
• New Voter Registration favoring Republicans:
• Research shows “STEEP DECLINE” in new voter registration in 2020 as compared to 2016:
NOTE: The actual average percentage of new voter registrations is FAR below the allowance that I gave in the math above
• “From the Pew Center on the States, has been cited primarily for this startling fact: one in eight (12%+/-)—voter registrations in the United States are no longer valid or are significantly inaccurate.”
