2020 was unprecedented, not just because of the pandemic and the share of write-in/absentee ballots, but because we had a desperate, criminal incumbent who would stop at nothing to avoid losing.

Hopefully under Biden we get some pushback towards everyone getting easier access to voting, longer early voting periods, and perhaps more states allowing mail-in voting as a default. The last will essentially kill exit polling I think.

I’d also hope to see states establish some common standards towards the deadlines and handling of absentee and mail-in ballots since the current mishmash can get very confusing. (And hard to explain in Discord in a political discussion with people from outside the US since you often simply have to answer “It varies from state to state.”)
