which country has the largest number of the voters in the world?
Answers
Answer:
Voting for elected officials is a freedom afforded to many countries around the world. In democracies and republics, the people get to have a voice in their governments through voting.
Many people realize just how important this freedom is, yet not everyone eligible to vote does. The reasons why vary, whether a person isn’t interested in politics, don’t agree with the platforms or any of the other candidates or doesn’t meet all of the requirements needed to legally vote.
In the 2020 U.S. presidential election, an estimated 158 million Americans turned out to vote. About 66.5% of eligible voters voted in the 2020 election, the highest turnout since 1900. The 2020 election saw about 20 million more votes than the 137 million in the 2016 election. Only about 55.72% of eligible voters voted in the 2016 election. Even in the 2020 election, U.S. voter turnout lags behind several developed nations around the world.
