Beyond the problem that a contested election will produce a crippled winner, I'm so sick of hearing about this stuff that I can't imagine us refighting these battles for another 4 years.

I'm thinking you'd better resign yourself to some unhappiness, then. My guess is, this one goes down to the wire, is followed by tons of court challenges based on voter fraud, polling place problems, intimidation by officials, and malfunctioning equipment, and is finally resolved sometime in late December, in a very unsatisfactory way (to many.)
