The fact that the electoral college even allows for a tie is absolutely insane.

This is the only tie map that seems plausible to me, though I suspect of polls are off that much, it's probably a win for Trump in ME-2 as well and he gets it 270-268. Arizona blue and Wisconsin or Pennsylvania red seems nonsensical to me.

Why is everyone so horny for a tie. There's a clear process for handling that

House votes for president, senate votes for VP.

Arizona blue and Wisconsin or Pennsylvania red seems nonsensical to me. I think the most likely outcomes, in order, are 1. Trump overperforms his popular vote expectations slightly, Biden disappoints because D's don't turn out on election day. Trump hits like 44% popular vote, trails by 4-5% nationally, and wins a slim EV victory based on a red PA, OH, NC, AZ, and 1 midwestern state. 2. Biden's for real and people really hate Trump that much. He wins an EV victory around 60-80 votes. 3. Biden's not for real but still 'wins' a slim EV victory with a blue PA and AZ. Chaos ensues. 4. Tie I've outlined above. 5. Something no one could imagine but that is very stupid.

Because as unlikely as it is that would be a hell of a loving show.

I'm talking about like, Trump's not corona immune and dies and Pence beats Biden and selects Cotton as his VP or something.

From what I understand it seems Wisconsin is bluer than Pennsylvania, making the 269-269 situation unlikely. I thought WI would be the state to be most nervous about in the Rust Belt but PA has gotten chudified over last few years

I think if Biden wins a couple of these tossup states he should be g2g. Ohio, PA and NC are always tossups, but Wisconsin is getting pretty chuddy, and Arizona is, you know, Arizona.

^^^ The tie-breaking procedure is too lame though. It really should be decided by coin toss.
