Very tense moments. Emotional roller coaster. So many plot twists and great uncertainty. Who will play the leads in the movie? What an election!
I wrote this early on, before the in person, on-the-day voting started. So I have no idea while writing this, how things turn out. I just foresee it being an exciting night of tension, emotion and high drama. Entertaining!
Did it landslide to the left? Or did it landslide to the right? Are they down to one last voting district that will decide the whole thing? Maybe they are recounting. Oddly, despite lots of pre-election time to vote in person or by mail, some states have allowed people to go past the voting deadline of 3rd November. That seems to be asking for a bit of unnecessary confusion and court involvement.
Neither candidate will want to concede right away if it is super close in some key states. You wouldn’t either after all your effort, money and campaigning.
So unless it is a landslide in the electoral college with no close calls that would change anything, we could have a few weeks of legal battles to get through.
I believe both men will accept the result if it looks fair and convincing or if the Supreme Court needs to rule on it.
Hopefully that won’t be necessary.
What an election!
