Imagine this scenario after November 3rd. Democrats have exceeded expectations and seem to be on the verge of winning 52 seats in the Senate, after taking the house with a substantial majority. But it is November 5th, and Michigan’s county canvass has just begun, with El-Sayed ahead by only a few thousand ballots and a recount looming.

Pennsylvania Democratic senator John Fetterman, known to be erratic, announces that he is switching parties and becoming a Republican as he will not be in the same party as El-Sayed. Then Mike Rogers, the losing Republican Candidate, calls on the Justice Department to seize ballots in Detroit, on the false grounds of massive dysfunction in the voting machine tabulation of paper ballots. With a preplanned strike that night, federal agents seize the sealed ballot containers held by the Detroit clerk for the canvass. When an injunction overturns their action on Nov. 6th, as many as 15,000 paper ballots appear to have gone missing, about 30% of the absentee ballots they took.
