I'm going to take a wild guess and say they have a different idea of 'droves' than the average person.

They don't even give any numbers! The closest we have is a tweet by some random claiming a 700% increase…which could well be next to nobody since the average search rate for any other time of year is probably zero.
Fantastic
Edit: If I dig deeper to the article the lazy butt journos at the root pulled from, still no real numbers, but the very important nuance the the searches peaked on the morning of Election Day and dropped after. In order words, right after people who early voted had second thoughts and wondered if they could adjust their vote before closing. Not a mass freaking out post results. This is the lazing fricking journ*lism I swear.
Any time there's a discussion around Google trends its usually really really stupid leaps of logic
Like during the Brexit vote there were obviously a bunch of searches in the UK for "what is brexit" day of. There were posts like "LOL UK voters don't even know what they're voting for". Not that, yknow, the people searching that probably weren't voting
