Voter turnout
Thirumangalam (88.89%) was the maximum.
The voter turnout percentage for US elections varies every year, and historical data date back as far as 1828, which had a turnout of 57.6%. The highest voter turnout rate to date was in 1876.
Presidential Elections
Low voter turnout may be caused by disenchantment, indifference, or contentment. Different elections have different voter turnout rates. Presidential elections have a higher voter turnout rate than other elections. Bad weather can also cause low voter turnout. Voter fatigue and the ease of registering to vote can also affect voter turnout.
Voter turnout is lower in the United States than in many other democracies.

voter turnout is much lower in midterm elections
Across the democratic world, excluding countries with compulsory voting, voter turnout is at its highest at federal or national general elections. This is generally because these elections are heavily publicised in the press, dominate the public affairs agenda for the duration of their campaigns and are regarded as being of high importance to the electorate - as well as being directly relevant to their daily and/or political lives. In contrast, in most jurisdictions, turnout is comparatively low in local, regional, municipal or state elections, largely because they are not as well publicised and considered less important by most electors. In the United Kingdom for example, it is not uncommon for turnout at annual local elections to be half - or even less than half - the turnout of the average general election. It is worth noting that in nations with an elected executive (i.e., President), turnout in presidential elections is usually higher than those at legislative ones, especially if legislative elections take place on a separate date. For example, at the 2012 French presidential election, turnout at the second round was 80.5% - at the legislative elections just a month later, it was only 57.2%.
