One thing I worry about is a contingent presidential election. That situation arises when no candidate gets a majority of electoral votes (270 of 538). Should this situation arise, Congress gets to pick the next president and vice president.

    On top of all that, no one would regard the President as legitimate. Look where we’re at now, 30% of the country literally believes a Presidential election can be faked enough for Trump to have lost.
