Original Note:
This is an inaccurate "apples to oranges" comparison. Most of the Biden count is from a blanket pardon of ~6500 offenders for marijuana possession. But Carter's blanket pardon of ~209000 Vietnam era draft dodgers is missing. Carter's total pardons are most of any POTUS. https://www.justice.gov/pardon/presidential-proclamation-marijuana-possession https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/president-carter-pardons-draft-dodgers https://www.justice.gov/pardon/proclamation-4483-granting-pardon-violations-selective-service-act
