Reference :- Sky Anchor Alan Jones, AKA Frankenjonesie , is having difficulties with numbers again . This time it's voter numbers .

Reference :-   The mathematics in this instance are very easily explained, fortunately . 

I know that numbers are not your strong suit  Jonesie .  Usually it's something to do with percentages of CO2 or the like , but on this occasion you failed to comprehend how the voting numbers during the Presidential election could be correct . 

"   How could Biden have got 80 million votes ?   That is a quarter of the population of the USA ! "  you gasped . 

Monte , the numbers man at The Sky Reply , explored this proposition and we are delighted to announce that we can address your confusion .  The maths are outlined below .  You probably should check  the batteries in your calculator before you run the numbers .  Young Angus Taylor has been sadly remiss in this regard and is still suffering the consequences . 

Out of consideration for your limited mathematical  skill ,  we have rounded the numbers . 

Number of voters registered in the USA ...............................................................230 million 

Number who voted for Mr Biden ............................................................................80 million 

Number who voted for Mr Trump ..........................................................................70 million 

Total number of people who voted .......................................................................150 million 

Total number of people who were registered to vote but didn't ..... ..............80 million 

Monte says if you are using a pencil for the addition , don't forget to carry the "1" . 

The numbers look very unremarkable when you see them written down , rather than having them shouted in your face . 

There is no need to thank Monte , he likes to help. 

Your  comrade , Ken
