It was the lowest turnout sine 1996. It was Stupid Day, 2016.

Excuse me scooter but weren't there more votes cast in 2016 than in
the rest of the history of presidential campaigns?
Maybe CNN lied to me?

Well Bubba, 2016 was the lowest percentage of eligible voters since 1996.
Define election turnout however you like. Percentage of eligible voter
suits me just fine.

Is that eligible voter or registered voter?
It is funny how they are slicing and dicing the statistics without
acknowledging that these were the two most unpopular candidates in
recent history, if not the entire history of the republic. Even your
VP says Hillary ignored the mid west swing states and hinted that the
voters she needed were deplorable. The DNC ****ed up nominating
Hillary and Hillary ran a horrible campaign. Without the inevitable
defeat of Trump in their sights, the DNC might have made better
choices.
OTOH if the GOP had a better candidate, it would not have even been a
close race.
This is what happens when both candidates are as bad as the choices we
were handed.
