Less than two weeks from the end of the strangest presidential campaign in anyone’s memory, the outcome seems to be getting easier to predict, with Hillary Clinton ahead of Donald Trump in national polls and many battleground-state surveys.

Fact is, the actual result of the election is just one nodule of suspense (or curiosity, or worry, or terror, depending on your perspective) as Election Day approaches. There is the question of whether the results will be accepted.
