Sen. Bernie Sanders wrongly claimed that voter turnout in 2016 was “the lowest … in 20 years.” In fact, turnout was higher than it was in 2012.

The overall turnout was 60.2% in 2016, up from 58.6% four years earlier. In addition, the percentage of eligible voters casting ballots for president in 2016 was 59.3% — the third highest in the last 44 years. Only 2008 and 2004 were higher.
