NYT Nicholas Kristof ended his <a
href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/04/opinion/donald-trump-election-2020.html">OpEd</a>
this morning with a paragraph that summarized my feeling entirely:
<blockquote>
<p>"So as I fret about Trump’s efforts to do Russia’s work and
delegitimize this election, I also keep wrestling with this
question: How is it that so many millions of Americans watched
Trump for four years, suffered the pain of his bungling of
Covid-19, listened to his stream of lies, observed his attacks
on American institutions<i> </i>— and then voted for him in
greater numbers than before?"</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Last count per NYT, there have been 68,644,941 votes (47.8%) this
morning for Trump. So many voters, that apparently don't see
{choose your favorite crisis} as a key issue either, it boggles my
mind. What have those movements done wrong? If I didn't understand
how difficult it is to steal an election (detailed in another NYT
oped today), I might even say there was something fishy. <br>
</p>
<p>Suggestions?</p>

One thing that confuses me is Trump being attributed 267 vs
268 EVs. But I suppose it could be Maine, with it's split
representation:<br>

If any of that happens Biden wins with a margin. <br>
