I haven't looked in detail at most of the results, but in Michigan (the swing state that was most likely to punish the Democrats for arming Netanyahu) the Democrat vote was well down, whilst the combined Jill Stern and Cornell West vote was only half of the Republican majority (Kennedy and Chase would not have benefitted from that particular section of the electorate switching).

It looks like a significant part of the Biden vote just stayed at home.
It looks like a majority of the American voting public are either extremely self centered or stupid

Or both

I mean we had a little bit of that over here with the Boris vote but thankfully it didn't last long
