I think the Voter Turnout used should be the Voter Eligible Turnout because US Election pages till 2012 used the Voter Eligible Turnout from the US Election project[1]. It will be easier to compare voter turnout between elections if the same definition was used. [1]https://www.electproject.org/national-1789-present
I would like to insert Gary Johnson in the Infobox Election, because he played an important role during the election, could you agree with me that I can insert him? Hugo.fr43 (talk) 15:28, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Green and Libertarian parties only got estimates, while you have exact totals for Dems and Republicans. This reinforces the idea that we must tick with the 2 party system. Greg Spence Wolf 24.16.169.51 (talk) 02:10, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I propose changing the Trump photo to this (File:Donald Trump 2016 cropped.jpg) from Wikicommons. The photo used at the moment is from 2017, which is after the election took place. Clinton's photo is from 2016. This would make it consistent. CNC33 (. . .talk) 23:32, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In official documents, in the White House Archives, in Trump's social media account, and in many news agencies, it says Donald J. Trump, but Wikipedia administrators still insist on the name being written as Donald Trump. Why? Don't be stubborn about not writing the correct name! 78.177.160.99 (talk) 18:51, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
