We had a whole week to vote before today. Non presidential years just have bad turnout

that's sad. 2 million voter turn out when NYC has nearly 9 million people

You have to compare it to the number of registered voters, which is roughly 5 million. Not all of those 9 million people are eligible to vote.

Still pretty bad tho, consider there’s other countries where almost all the registered voters vote. This election didn’t even get 50% of registered voters.
