Voter Turnout: Presidential Election

Measurement Period: 2020
This indicator shows the percentage of registered voters who voted in the last presidential election.

Why is this important?

Voting is one of the most fundamental rights of a democratic society. Exercising this right allows a nation to choose elected officials and hold them accountable. Voting ensures that all citizens have the opportunity to voice their opinions on issues such as the use of tax dollars, civil rights and foreign policy. By voting, individuals shape their communities and influence the next generation of society. A high level of turnout indicates that citizens are involved in and interested in who represents them in the political system.
The Healthy People 2030 national health target is to increase the proportion of the voting-age citizens who vote to 58.4 percent.
