105. In Nevada in 2020, the total votes for House Reps was 96.5% of the votes for President; in 2024, 96.1%

Nov 2024

So that's not a huge difference.

2020 House Rep races:
223213 137868 74490 6190 4665
382673 216078 155780 10815
417252 203421 190975 12315 10541
332469 168457 152284 7978 3750
1355607

2020 Pres votes:
1405376 703486 669890 14783 14079 3138

2024 House Rep races:
322899 167885 143650 3321 2736 2711 2596
399584 219919 144064 19784 15817
372388 191304 181084
332206 174926 148061 4919 4300
1427077

2024 Pres votes:
1484840 751205 705197 19625 6059 2754

1355607/1405376 = 96.5%; 1427077/1484840 = 96.1%

So why is a rate of 3.9% voting for president but not a rep suspicious to you in 2024, but 3.5% in 2020 wasn't? Is that really a big enough difference to "stink"?

The heck is a bullet ballot? onetexan Nov 2024 #162

A bullet ballot is when the voter votes in only one election and not the rest of the ballot. TomSlick Nov 2024 #182
