Amusing Statistic:

From [1]Crossing Wall Street:
Total Democratic Presidential Votes Since 1932: 745,407,082
Total Republican Presidential Votes Since 1932: 745,297,123
Of course, this weighs recent elections, in which more votes were
cast, more heavily than older elections. I haven't checked the data,
though they link to a spreadsheet with the data, which you folks can
easily check if you'd like. Thanks to Prof. Brad Smith for the
pointer.
