Normal
covid-era voting regulation changes all systemically favored the democrats despite boosting turnout generally. unsolicited ballot mailing + ballot harvesting is what pumped up the 2020 numbers so much. turnout was boosted for both parties, but dems had a systematic method for intentionally driving their vote totals to absurd levels, and that's the entire reason so many of those changes were made in the first place.there was probably a dem ground operation for ballot harvesting just like there was in 2020, but the percentage of mail-in ballots vs in-person voting was much more normal than it was in 2020, plus legitimate voting also favored trump over kamala relative to trump vs biden.
