Yes, but how many are of voting age, though, and how many of those are eligible? 340 million includes everyone, including those who can't.
161 million registered voters in 2024. ~140 million votes cast.
The worst case estimate has it at 11 million people are fascists in the US. This is from 2018, but it gives a good ball park number for today. edit: 2018 not 2016
