Will there even be elections now that Trump is in power?
We believe competitive elections will continue. We aren’t putting it past Trump to try to subvert future elections, but it would be pretty hard to do so: Ending elections would, among other things, require each state government to decide not to hold them. We don’t think it helps us to catastrophize or make Trump appear more powerful than he is. Trump would like nothing more than for us to decide the fix is in, conclude there is nothing we can do about it, and surrender in advance. Don’t fall for it.
