(92,114 posts)2. I can't find the source right now, but I think I messed up. I think it was eligible voters

(9,263 posts)3. the term would be eligible to be registered to vote
I think the actually total registered voters in the US is in the 200-210 million range and is difficult to surmise for 2020

on election day.
