Here’s an interesting, but highly unlikely, scenario:
Trump and Biden tie at 268 electoral votes each. The means that state delegations in the House get to pick the next president. After some backroom deal-making, enough Republican delegations (I think it would only take two, but I can’t be arsed to look it up)decide they’ve had it up to HERE with Trump’s antics, and side with the Democratic delegations and Hey Presto, Biden is your next President.
BUT...the Senate gets to pick the Vice President. If Republicans maintain control of the Senate (as looks increasingly likely), they’ll pick Pence.
A Democratic President and a Republican VP. How cool is THAT??
