I guess I'm going to be the one in here who bets on Trump. I remember how 2000 went down and I don't see Biden forcing the issue, which is what I think decides the outcome this time more than the number of votes counted. Also, when considering votes, elections are won on turnout, Trump is juicing the pandemic, and only one team has supporters who are willing to literally die for the cause. I'll repeat my forecast from the old sub:
Trump legitimately wins the EC count, but not the popular vote.
He cheats anyway and gets caught doing it.
Libs make hay of this and it goes nowhere.
Nobody ever actually tells Trump he has to leave.
Biden runs a shadow administration that maybe Apple and a few other companies treat seriously.
None of any of it actually matters to anyone's daily life and things continue to get worse.
I'll join you and also say Trump EC win. I really think they're going to do some big media attack on Biden much closer to the election that will drop Biden's standing in the polls considerably. If they hit the dems with voter supression (they're already fucking doing this) and decrease voter enthusiasm for Biden, they have a good shot at muddying the waters enough to steal the election. After all, let's remember the presidency win is determined by a handful of states that don't have good election security or voting rights.
More importantly, i think the GOP will retain the senate by a hair. House will probably be more blue but that won't matter with the obstruction.
Feel free to screenshot this and dunk on me in 3 months if i'm wrong, nerds. Your material conditions won't change either way, but at least it'll give you a brief moment of satisfaction before we keep dying of lack of health care while sprinting toward full climate collapse
