Me @CNN Oct. 19: "What will the United States and the world wake up to on November 4, 2020, the day after Election Day? And could the US endure a close election in which Joe Biden is declared the winner but President Donald J. Trump refuses to concede?"

"If the race is close, Trump and his campaign could file lawsuits and use evidence of election administrator incompetence to convince key segments of the American right that Democrats stole the election through deliberate fraud. ..."
"Trump has already sowed distrust in the results by saying without evidence that the only way he loses is if the election is 'rigged.' ..."
"Such a scenario could lead to chaos and disagreement about the results of the election even if election officials do everything by the book and there is no significant fraud or mismanagement of the election."
"We don't know which of these three scenarios will come to pass, but it is clear that a replay of the 2000 election dispute ... but this time with President Trump fanning unsubstantiated claims of fraud on social media, is about the worst of the possible outcomes."
