> So when confronted with an extremely implausible voter turnout, people say the real turnout is votes/total eligible voters... which is very different than every other time I’ve experienced voter turn out Not sure how whatever conjured view of voter turnout YOU have is relevant. You can go to https://elections.wi.gov/elections-voting/statistics/turnout
grab `Voter Turnout Partisan-NonPartisan Through August 2020.xlsx` and see that turnout percentage is computed as `number of votes cast` / `voting age population`. Which puts Wisconsin turnout at 72.3% [1] We were talking about ballot rejection, and you start going off about "shocking" voter turnout statistics because you had no retort to the rejection stuff. Either you have an axe to grind or you are a troll. Or maybe you're a masked free speech crusader. The hero we deserve. But I kind of doubt that. 1: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/11/05/fac... |

This is funny -- here's a single example from the WI.gov page to show how little care is given to cultivating and maintaining this data...
HINDI: 56184
County: ST. CROIX COUNTY
Municipality: VILLAGE OF SPRING VALLEY
Total Electors 2012: 4
Voting Age Estimate 2012: 6
Voter Turnout 2012: 66.67%
Total Electors 2016: 319
Voting Age Estimate 2016: 10
Voting Turnout 2016: 3190.00%
So I can find slivers that support wild claims too. I think the more productive discussion is just doing a side by side of signatures and rolls - not that hard, no real argument about it - and everyone can stop trying to dig for little things and becoming unbearably pedantic with each other.
