An additional thought about this election.

One can make educated guesses about why the Harris campaign fell short, based on what information we can glean from exit polls and the like, the kind of analysis that political science works on every day. These studies will be credible and may be satisfactory to understand what happened. .

However, there is no reason to rule out dirty tricks just yet, either. Trump’s allies in this campaign are famous for finding ways to put their fingers on the scale. We may find out over the course of the next two years that they did it again.

Remember that It took a long time to understand Havana Syndrome, and it may take just as long to understand what happened in the 2024 election.
