Normal for democratic voters only? There were very few that didn't vote down ticket on the Republican side but 10's of thousands that failed to do so on the Democrat side. Read the article. Why the disparity? You would think there would be a similar amount on both sides. Why did 60,000 + democrat voter fail to vote for a Senator?
You confuse "democrat" voters for anti-Trump voters. I want Trump out, but I didn't want Democrats to control everything either. My local county voted for 54% for Biden. But it also re-elected the Republican Congressional rep. However, that Congressional election also had a bunch of undervotes.
I voted third party so it isn't my fight but dang it the signs of fraud are everywhere in this election. Am I supposed to believe this old guy with early onset dementia and 47 years of destroying our country pulled off what Hillary couldn't four years ago? Did this idiot inspire the greatest voter turn out in History? How did that happen?
I don't care much for Trump but this is just blatant fraud the way I see it.

Fine for your county. How do you explain people NOT voting in the Senate race in battleground states? I understand you didn't want Trump and I can respect that. Why did so many people fail to cast a vote for the Senate candidate in these battleground states? It is very convenient that the numbers that failed to do so pushed Biden pass Trump in the polls. Not enough time maybe?

Lots of people fail to vote for anything but president. Why? They just don't care. Maybe they want a monarch or don't realize those down ballot local issues and reps affect them more or don't want to commit to researching who to vote for.
Basically the same question as why is voter turnout so **** poor in non-presidential elections. Can't say, but that most certainly is true.

Why is this behavior not evident in other non "battleground" States? Shouldn't it be consistent across all states?
There's nothing new about undervoting. A lot of people just don't care to vote for anything but president. Hence the higher vote turnout in presidential elections and dismal turnout in special elections, ironically for local matters that usually have more impact on their lives than the president. https://www.google.com/search?q=undervotes+history
Ok I can go along with that to a point. I don't like coincidences and dont believe in them unless they are manufactured. I can believe that some people behave as you suggest, especially when it comes to things like state legislature or county Treasurer or solicitor, etc. Not federal Senators or congress critters. I also question how districts who were solidly 1 way suddenly do a flip in the wee hours.
Yep those places need a recount with a lot of supervision.
Trumps votes came for him. Not for the party as much. Which means that while a Republican might love his Republican Senator, Trumps actions made them vote elsewhere. My sister voted for ALL Republicans im sure, except she left the president vote blank. She couldnt vote for Trump.....but she couldnt vote Biden either.
