Global roller-coaster ride


If Biden loses by legal challenge or recounts, the Democrats would have twice won significant majorities in terms of votes, as in 2016, but still lost the presidency because of the complex electoral college system. Furthermore, the convoluted laws governing counting are different for each state, which means that narrow margins of victory will be subject to very contentious legal challenges over fraud and rigging.

AMERICAN voters have made their choice. But the margins are so narrow that we will only know who wins after all the mail-in ballots are counted.

Trump has already tweeted “stop the count” and legal challenges will be mounted. In this highly controversial election, the first day of counting showed that the polls predicting a landslide win for Biden were wrong.
