    Anyone have any predictions whats going to happen after all votes are in and a winner is declared? I’d say violent protests are all but a guarantee with either candidate winning.

    The fact that the GOP candidate is already thinking about how to contest the election (as per https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-kurt-olson-election-fraud-1235140345/ ) makes me hopeful that he sees he’s losing; and that what he’s seeing is accurate, at least this one time.

    In other words, I’m hopeful that he’s actually going to lose.

    How bad would it be if Dems can’t retake the Senate this time and need to wait until 2026 to have the WH along with both Houses of Congress?

    • This is exactly why I always insisted on voting by mail in ballot.

      When I first voted after becoming of age, I voted in the primary and had to use one of the machines.

      After that I figured out how to arrange to be considered out of county to qualify for an absentee ballot.

      Since then the State has changed its rules so now anyone can request a mail-in ballot for any reason, as it should be.
