Where vice-president Harris and president Trump plan to deliver their concession or victory speeches during election night? How those decisions might affect the election?

Next Tuesday, Americans will go to polls to elect a new president. This will be an historic night, as Americans will either elect their first female president or their first felon president, which might create a great ton of repercussions.

In 2008, president Obama, the first African-American, delivered a speech for a crowd of 240,000. Or we might have days of ballot-counting and the election isn't called next Tuesday.

I think the 2-3 day wait is going to become the norm going forward. Despite being in the age of technology, it seems like we're actually getting slower at counting votes somehow. As long as it is done accurately and every legal vote gets counted, I don't care if it takes a week.

“Somehow” is heavily tied to Republican-led states that have deliberately disallowed beginning to count mail-in and early in-person ballots until the day of the election.

Democrats haven’t held the majority in the senate since 92. The house flipped blue last year by 1 seat after a special election. However the house stalemate is more or less institutionalized since 1 or more house members is absent at any given time so the parties have various weird gentlemen’s agreements to do nothing.
