If there is a cancelled, postponed or 'emergency - delayed' election chaos will occur, as I think there is no clear answer to how it should be handled and the Supreme Court is the worst place to decide, the Electoral College next worst. We have long been loosing our democracy [what little we ever had], and this could be the death knell. I would not trust Congress, especially the Senate to pass any new legislation to get us through what now looks like an inevitable crisis over the election. EVEN if [and that is unlikely] the virus is gone or dormant in November, a normal election is hardly going to be possible without re-infecting most who come to vote - and the voter repression techniques of the Republicans will be GREATLY helped by the virus.
