- THE VOTE
9.
There’s
no
last-minute
judicial
decision
affecting
voting
procedures
in
one
or
more
states.
10.
Poll
watchers
are
respectful,
and
there
are
few
ugly
confrontations
at
polling
places.
11.
Polling
stations
have
enough
ballots.
YES
Voting rolls on as is.

Election workers scramble to adapt; voters are confused. Trust ebbs.

Aggressive poll watchers or protesters intimidate voters. A video of a brawl goes viral, stoking distrust.
NO
More people get provisional ballots, which are vulnerable to legal challenges.
YES
TO
5
AND
6
PLUS
ANY
3
OF
7-11
IN-PERSON
VOTING
GOES
FINE
Despite
the
coronavirus,
in-person
voting
goes
off
largely
without
a
hitch.
Voter
confidence
in
the
results
should
remain
solid.
NO
TO
5
OR
6
PLUS
ANY
2
OF
7-11
IN-PERSON
VOTING
GOES
POORLY
Problems
with
voting
in
person
lead
to
many
people
not
being
able
to
cast
a
ballot.
This
undermines
faith
in
the
result
of
the
election.
