Something to keep in mind is that it would be too late to remove Trumps name from the ballot.

Think this would have been the map. A narrow Pence victory.
This is an electoral tie by 2010 census numbers.

Keep in mind that polling showed a sizeable majority of people believed that Trump could have avoided the infection had he been more competent with his handling of the pandemic in general.

Anyways what I think would happen is that Trumps death would be seen as vindicating the position of those arguing for more aggressive action than what Trump had been doing by those who were previously skeptical, and Trump (it would still be him on the ballot, it would have been way too late to replace him) would lose by a greatly expanded margin.

In addition, due to Trump not being alive to frivolously claim fraud as impacting the results, January 6th goes by peacefully without an insurrection.
