Several articles are saying that turnout will ultimately be 133-135 million, but the popular vote totals right now are only slightly over 2004. That was a relatively high turnout election too (60% of eligible voters), but most projections had 2008 surging past that.
So what's the truth? Is it going to wind up in the low-to-mid 130 million range or is it going to stay in the mid-120 millions? And if it is going to edge into the 130 million range, where are all the outstanding votes? Right now it's only slightly over 120 million with 97-98% precincts nationally reporting -- so where are the rest of the votes?
There was some decreased turnout in various CA counties from 2004, I know and probably in some parts of KY.
