The 2020 presidential election highlighted divides in the United States that have only grown deeper since 2016, with votes split along race, gender, age, education and economic lines.

White voters make up a majority of the U.S. electorate, although their share of the population is shrinking over time. As of 2019, non-Hispanic white Americans made up 69 per cent of registered voters, down from 85 per cent in 1996, while Black and Hispanic voters each make up about 11 per cent of registered voters, according to the Pew Research Center.

During this election cycle, the median age of voters crossed 50 for the first time. A little more than half the electorate, 52 per cent, are aged 50 and older, a demographic more likely to lean Republican than Democratic.

Prof. Citrin said the pandemic was a decisive factor in giving Mr. Biden his lead at this stage. Most importantly, it changed the way people voted, vastly increasing the number of absentee and mail-in ballots that were cast. That process encouraged a rush of organizing and get-out-the-vote efforts among Democrats that was rewarded in narrow state races.

How long will this, by now dead horse be beaten overt and over and....

Still feel that however way one looks at the results the country us still split. Instead of looking at this reasonably far too many call the other bad or even evil and this has always led to escalation and even revenge. Through history, this has led to horrible results.

Biden encouraged his supporters to vote early and by mail, trump told his supporters to show up in person. The votes being counted are mail in ballots, it's not a very difficult thing to figure out...
