After Donald Trump’s campaign announced it would accept cryptocurrency, the operators of a host of fraudulent websites have sought to hustle his supporters.
66% of eligible are voting, 33% of eligible are not voting. Of the 66% that did vote, half of those (I used 49%) voted for Trump. Half of the 66% is 33%.
So, of the eligible voters, 33% voted Biden, 33% voted Trump, and 33% didn’t vote.
Or, if you want math:
.66 * .49 = .32 or 32%
Edit: I misunderstood the question and gave an off-topic answer. Someone else commented the correct reason: not all Americans are eligible to vote. Children, felons in certain States, etc. Since they didn’t/can’t vote they’re not counted in the “half of America” statistic often quoted.
Half of eligible voters voted for trump, which is about 32% of America in 2020.
33%, but yeah. Both are true.
