SACRAMENTO, CA – Secretary of State Alex Padilla released the final statewide Report of Registration ahead of the November 3, 2020, General Election.

The numbers for California seem to be a bit fishy to me:
2020 figures:
Current total (California) 7912482 (Biden)+3987415 (Trump)+109823 (Jorgensen)+49322 (Hawkins)+34713 (DeLaFuente)+30555 (LaRiva): 12,124,310
2020 CA population: 39.51 million
Registered voters: 22,047,448 (55.80% of the population.)
54.99% have voted in California, current.
2016 figures:
2016 election total (California) 8753788 (Clinton)+4483810 (Trump)+478500 (Johnson)+278657 (Stein)+177028 (Other)+66101 (LaRiva): 14,237,884
2016 CA population: 39.17 million
Registered voters: 19,411,771 (49.56% of the population.)
73.35% voted in California, 2016.
* Any thoughts about an amendment that would stipulate that if, say, 2/3 (or 3/4, etc.) of a state's eligible voter population doesn't vote then that state's votes are wholly nullified and excluded from the count total? (If politicians cannot retain enough interest from their constituents then they are out for the purposes of that state...at the federal level, and perhaps for even state constitutions too.)
