Is there any chance that some states will get their shit together for mail in ballots before November? How many are cheering on the inevitable chaos when we don't get vote counts for 2 or more weeks?

November 9 would be my guess. We may know the week before, but I feel like enough states will have reported by the next Monday for us to know for sure that it's over. Trump is never going to concede, but between what's official and what's still outstanding, we will be able to see when someone (Biden) has 270 clinched by the 9th.

Still waiting for ST's rationale before I post my guess. This is really hard--I have a good idea of how long the various logistical/legal challenges could take and what I think is most likely but "concession speech" could easily just *never* happen even under a peaceful transition of power. It's not hard to imagine Trump being like "you know they were very unfair to me" for the rest of his life.

I am honestly salivating at how deranged Trump's speech is going to be whenever the AP calls the race, and he will definitely not concede.
