The last 2 elections were decided by 77k and 43k votes, respectively. It's widely assumed 2024 will be another close one. But will the outcome in the EC once again be decided by a margin fewer than 100k votes?

What does Atlas think? I voted Yes.

I voted No.

It's certainly possivle that it is extremely close again. But Trump is an awful candidate, abd Biden is a brittle one.

If Biden has a personal health crisis that hurts him badly, likewise if there is a domestic or foreign crisis he fails to resolve decisively. In those cases, Trump (or the R nominee) likely wins by a solid margin (with terrible consequences).

But if Biden doesn't collapse, he probably has a solid win against a Trump dragged down by his own failures.

It may be decided by fewer than 100 votes at this point

There's an argument to be made that it was decided yesterday by 9 votes.

Or that it was decided on February 28, 2024 by four votes.

Or February 8, 2024 by the vote of Robert Hur.

Or on October 7, 2023 by the vote of Hamas.
