The Presidential and Congressional Elections of 2020: A National Referendum on the Trump Presidency

He argues that the elections were above all a referendum on Donald Trump’s presidency, which provoked extreme levels of party loyalty, partisan polarization, and partisan animosity in the electorate, as well as the highest voter turnout in more than a century.
