So there must have been a lot of first time voters in 2024, or voters who skipped 2020 but came out in 2024, because there was just something like 6 million fewer ballots cast in 2024 compared to 2020.

883 is a pretty small sample size, wish they could have found more 2020 Biden voters/2024 abstainers, but at least somebody targeted this group and asked the right questions.
