A surge of mail-in votes and a potential Senate runoff could force Americans to wait days — or more — to learn who won control of the White House or Congress in November.
“There is no chance that we will know on election night the full vote total in Michigan,” Marc Elias, an election lawyer with prominent Democratic clients, told NBC News. “Neither Michigan nor Pennsylvania have a history of large numbers of absentee ballots being cast. And Michigan law prohibits the absentee ballots from even starting to be counted until polls are closed.”
The uncertainty comes at a volatile moment of hyper-partisanship and growing unrest in the United States, as the coronavirus pandemic pushes the economy into a recession and protests against the killing of George Floyd in police custody make international headlines. In a volatile political climate, some worry that delays could lend credence to attempts to undermine confidence in the outcome.
