2/ First, displaced Floridians who have not registered will want to register, and if FL officials don't extend deadlines, Dems will sue
1/ The hurricane, if it is as bad as predicted, will be a human tragedy. But talk will quickly turn to the following political implications
-
-
-
3/ Displaced Floridians will want to vote absentee,but absentee ballots that were mailed won't be available for some, creating complications
-
4/ Other Floridians will look to state to insure polling stations are up and running for those who are back, a big challenge in some areas
-
5/ We saw makeshift efforts with Sandy to allow voting by fax etc. FL efforts will be heavily scrutinized, and claims of fraud, suppression
-
6/ If the storm seriously disrupts FL election processes, courts could get involved, and cases could end up at 4-4 deadlocked
#SCOTUS -
7/ Meanwhile, campaigns will be disrupted by storm, freezing race as attention diverts to storm, giving short term advantage to Clinton
-
8/ But if Obama administration seen as botching storm response, that could benefit Trump and Republicans.
-
9/ But bottom line:a hurricane in FL whose votes could be decisive for president is one of the worst election administration nightmares /end

Interesting analysis. But only if it comes down to Florida being the decisive state. Clinton can win without FL. Trump can't.

Much of this depends on where the storm hits hardest. Meanwhile, pollster called today, mid-lockdown. Odd time to poll landlines.
