- Because they each count as an electoral vote. --Super Goku V (talk) 10:34, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

The US Elections Project citations are a mess. There are three copies of the citation on the page:
<ref>{{Cite web|title=US Elections Project – 2020g|url=https://www.electproject.org/2020g|access-date=November 14, 2022|website=www.electproject.org|archive-date=April 30, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210430220622/http://www.electproject.org/2020g|url-status=live}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|title=US Elections Project – 2016g|url=https://www.electproject.org/2020g|access-date=November 14, 2022|website=www.electproject.org|archive-date=April 30, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210430220622/http://www.electproject.org/2020g|url-status=live}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.electproject.org/2020g|title=2020 November general election turnout rates|work=United States Election Project|date=October 7, 2020|access-date=November 8, 2020|archive-date=November 7, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201107042631/http://www.electproject.org/2020g|url-status=live}}</ref>
The first one is mostly correct. The second one was supposed to cite turnout from 2016, but the URL is wrong. The third one is fine, but it duplicates the first one.
I suggest replacing the first one with
<ref name="Elections Project 2020g">{{Cite web|title=2020 November General Election Turnout Rates|work=United States Election Project|url=https://www.electproject.org/2020g|access-date=November 14, 2022|website=www.electproject.org|archive-date=April 30, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210430220622/http://www.electproject.org/2020g|url-status=live</ref>
the second one with
<ref>{{Cite web|title=2016 November General Election Turnout Rates|work=United States Election Project|url=https://www.electproject.org/2016g|website=www.electproject.org|url-status=live</ref>
and the third one with
<ref name="Elections Project 2020g"/>

- Oops, sorry, I forgot the closing braces (
}}
) for the templates, so they do not render correctly. I didn't notice my mistake because I couldn't preview the change. Could you (or someone else) please add them in? Thanks 185.47.220.165 (talk) 23:10, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

CNN sourcing
Since when is CNN a reputable and valid source to speak about a political candidate that they have repeatedly shown clear bias against? 47.62.150.58 (talk) 09:44, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
