(or 35% more) than the next closest vote total ever for a midterm election when the R's got 44.8 million in 2010.
That vote total represents 98% of the previous presidential election total, the highest ever by a wide margin. The next highest total in the last 40 years was 82% in 1994, the next highest total ever was 92% in 1970.
Why do you think D's gained only 30+ seats with these unprecedented turnout numbers? ...be honest now.
(how many will respond with dismissive snark?)
