Resolution will be based on Dave Leip's numbers.
Numbers for the 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020 elections are based on the FEC reports that followed those elections:

@creator can some of the lower ones be resolved early? Both Dave Leip (https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php) and the New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/11/05/us/elections/results-president.html) have turnout over 151 million already.
2020 was an absolutely historic year for turnout by American standards. It was the highest percent since the South clamped down on voting restrictions around 1900. And the voting eligible population is growing as slowly as ever.
