The guy who wrote it changed it. Take a look at your link.
My point is it doesn't matter which method you use. Just that comparing the percentage of current voters/ voter registrations (90%) to previous voters/ voters eligible (76%) is not a valid comparison. I know ALOT of accountants and they would not do that. That's why I'm happy he (sorta) retracted it.
If you wanted to extrapolate the voters/voters eligible to voters/voters registrations the 76% becomes 90% ish. So as the many fact checks and rebuttals stated, voter participation percentages have not appreciably increased.
footnote: / refers to "divided by"
