Michigan 2020 Election Fun Facts (From the AP)
- More than 5.5 million people voted in Michigan’s presidential election -- the most ever and the highest percentage of voting-age residents to cast a ballot in 60 years.
- The number of voters — in a pandemic — smashed the previous record of 5 million in 2008. About 71% of those age 18 and older voted. The only general election in the past 72 years with a larger portion was 1960.
- Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said it was “particularly inspiring and encouraging” that more than 28,000 people took advantage of a new option and registered and voted on Election Day.
- Absentee voting — now available to all voters under a 2018 constitutional amendment — surged, to nearly 3.5 million ballots during the virus outbreak.
