He has not won yet. Perhaps there may be a last minute change.

If the results remain roughly where they are now, then that is one important positive outcome.. and I would say exactly the same if the election had gone the other way.d

If it had been as close, or closer than last time, then who becomes presient is nearly random, as WP once wrote, and an enormous amount of drama would ensue. Which it might still do depending how tight the swing states are.

As it looks now it will be a solid win.



The odds of a reversal are so low now, it's practically useless.


I would like to see faster ways of counting. Only just recently AZ and NV have been called. How do other states, with millions of votes to count get it done quicker?


Even if recounts or whatever showed the results were changed they would be challenged in the courts until eventually Trump's supreme court would hand him the win anyway.

There is an "electoral college", whatever that is for.
