Fact check: What were the 2024 election results and voter turnout?

Checked on September 17, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The 2024 election results showed that Donald Trump won the presidential election with a more racially and ethnically diverse voter coalition [1] [2] [3] [4]. The voter turnout rate was reported to be around 64% [3] [4], which is the second-highest rate since 1960 [3]. According to the analyses, Trump gained support among Hispanic voters, Black voters, and Asian voters [4], with 48% of Hispanic voters, 15% of Black voters, and 40% of Asian voters supporting him [4]. The election results also included the presidential, Senate, House, and Governor races [1] [5]. Additionally, the voter turnout rate was also reported to be 65.3% by another source [6], and 63.7% by another [7].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

Some key context that is missing from the original statement includes the historical voter turnout rates [7], turnout by method of voting [7], and detailed breakdowns of voter preferences by demographic groups [2] [8]. Alternative viewpoints that are not presented in the original statement include the Democratic party's reaction to the election results [5], and the voting patterns in the 2024 election [4] [2]. It is also important to note that the sources provide different numbers for voter turnout, with 64% [3] [4], 65.3% [6], and 63.7% [7] being reported. Furthermore, the sources provide different breakdowns of voter preferences, with Trump winning 55% of men and Harris winning 52% of women [8], and Trump winning 56% of White voters, while Harris won 83% of Black voters and 55% of Latino voters [8].

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement may be considered to be lacking in context and potentially biased, as it does not provide a comprehensive overview of the election results and voter turnout. The statement may be benefiting the Republican party by only reporting on Trump's victory and not providing alternative viewpoints or context [1] [2] [3] [4]. Additionally, the statement may be misinforming readers by not providing accurate and consistent information on voter turnout, with different sources reporting different numbers [3] [6] [7]. It is also possible that the statement is excluding certain demographic groups by not providing detailed breakdowns of voter preferences [2] [8]. Overall, it is crucial to consider multiple sources and viewpoints when evaluating the 2024 election results and voter turnout [1] [2] [5] [3] [6] [7] [4] [8].
