Nor is 'result' binary since a very remote possibility exists that neither candidate of the two major parties will be declared the winner.
The only way I see neither of the two candidates for the two leading parties not getting elected and one of them becoming POTUS would be if there was an attack on the USA that would destroy enough of the country to delay indefinitely the election, or an attack that would destroy the USA, or both dying before the election, causing a reboot/reselection of two more candidates.
I don't foresee any of that happening, but to be honest, with a nonfunctional POTUS, all the above has increased percentage wise dramatically from a fraction of a percent to who knows how high a level.
We just had a joint effort by the Russians and Chinese with a fly over with military jets over Alaska, apparently a first for them to do together. That probe IMHO is perhaps the first of bad things to come as long as Biden is POTUS. The threat to this nation with this fool holding on to the grip of power has perhaps never been higher.
I think the USA is facing a threat greater than ever before. And our elected officials in Washington are playing their typical role of full on abdication. If I were Putin and Xi, I would give serious consideration to strike the USA. Again, with leadership like we have, it might take days before our house is in order to be able to respond to an attack.
For 3.5 years, that thought has been resident in the back of my mind, but now, the threat is clearly elevated by many magnitudes.
The effort to conceal just how bad Biden has been, I consider it treason. And at the top of the list of offenders is the VP, Sec of State, Sec of Defense, the director of the FBI and CIA. I would imagine these folks met with the president more often than others, and they knew all along. Plus, these are the primary folks that have something to do with the security of the USA, and all of them chose to betray this nation.
And yet the stinking corrupt media covered for all of them through this time. They are supposed to be the watchdogs to protect our society, and now they are a propaganda arm of one party that is transitioning into a fascist/communist entity. Ugggh!
