2020 US Election Thread

With the Democratic Convention just finished and the Republican Convention coming up next week, plus a whole bunch of controversy in the US about mail-in ballots, etc, I thought it was time to open a thread to chart MB's own take on the whole pre-election roller-coaster. It's a topic that's worth separating out from the I Can't Believe That News Story thread, imo, even if some of the stories around this first covid-style election fall squarely into the I-Can't-Believe-It category.

If anyone wants to do their research thoroughly, here's the thread that covered the run-up to the 2016 presidential election:- https://www.musicbanter.com/current-...on-thread.html

As I recall, that long, long thread was closed several times during its working life when arguments got heated, so let's play nice this time round, gentlemen!
