hap0206, Incapable or lying? You were given the facts in January 2022 ..
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=167412110 (again below) . Maybe earlier.

{Reposted to correct an italics error. }

It appears there are two chief possibilities here. Seems either you are incapable of understanding the correct 2020 president voting info given you. Or you have privately accepted that Binney and The Gateway Pundit used the wrong numbers, and you are publicly lying about it.

Repeat again TO YOU

hap, Firstly: In 2020, there were 168.31 million people registered to vote in the United States. This is a
significant increase from the previous election, when 153.07 million people were registered to vote.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/273743/number-of-registered-voters-in-the-united-states/

So your effort's "In a follow-up tweet, the MSM Fact Checking Twitter account tries to show its
math:" Just to clarify there were 213,799,485 registered voters in 2020" seems to have problems.

Not that the number of registered voters is all that crucial. See below.

[...]

While the Washington Post clearly cited the voting-eligible population, Binney and The Gateway Pundit instead looked up figures for the number of registered voters — even though not every American who is eligible to vote takes the steps to register.
P - Binney wrote that if there are 212 million registered voters and 66.2% voted, that means about 140 million voted. If Trump received 74 million votes, that leaves about 66 million for Biden, Binney wrote.
P - Binney’s implication is that there is no way Biden actually received about 81 million votes.
P - "These numbers don’t add up to what we are being told. Lies and more Lies!" Binney tweeted.
P - Binney didn't explain why, under this theoretically flawed analysis, it couldn’t have been Trump who had erroneously received millions of votes.
P - The Gateway Pundit added up the number of registered voters and applied the same math formula and reported numbers in the same ballpark as Binney. The writer concluded that if Trump won 74 million votes, that left 67.5 million remaining for Biden. That means "13 million duplicate or made up ballots were created and counted for Biden!"
P - But just as Binney did, the Gateway Pundit is plugging in the wrong number — the number of registered voters — while the Washington Post cited the number of adults eligible to vote.
P - The United States Elections Project .. http://www.electproject.org/ .. found there were about 239.2 million .. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1h_2pR1pq8s_I5buZ5agXS9q1vLziECztN2uWeR6Czo0/edit#gid=2030096602 .. eligible voters for the Nov. 3 election. Using that denominator and an approximately 66% turnout rate, it shows that about 158 million people voted for president.

That is from a post to you January 6, 2022 -- https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=167412110

Note again: Binney and The Gateway Pundit ignored the fact that many eligible voters don't register to vote. The situation would not have markedly changed since 2017, so see

Why Are Millions of Citizens Not Registered to Vote?
A survey of the civically unengaged finds they lack interest, but outreach opportunities exist
Issue Brief June 21, 2017
Overview
In every state and the District of Columbia—except North Dakota—individuals who plan to vote in a federal election must first register to vote. However, a sizable share of eligible citizens do not register. Official statistics vary, but a conservative estimate, calculated using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s most recent Voting and Registration Supplement, indicates that 21.4 percent were not registered to vote in 2014.1

Binney and The Gateway Pundit ignored the fact that millions of Americans do not
register to vote. You continue to post as though you have not accepted that fact.

So instead of the number "212 million registered voters" .... of registered voters Binney and The Gateway used, there were actually about "239.2 million" eligible voters. And "Using that denominator and an approximately 66% turnout rate, it shows that about 158 million people voted for president."

Biden ------- 81,268,924
Trump -------74,216,154
Jorgensen -- 1,865,724
Hawkins ------- 405,035
Other ----------- 627,566
Total ------ 158,383,403

So hap, seems clear to me our problem with your repetitive bullshit comes down to this. Are you understanding the correct
analysis. Or, are you, in pretending you don't understand, lying to you continuing effort to support that one of Trump's big lies.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
