This November’s presidential election could be conducted by mail-in ballot, with the time taken to count it meaning President Trump could spend an extra week in the White House even if he loses (Picture: Getty) Covid-19 could help Donald Trump remain in the White House for longer if he loses November’s presidential election, political analysts say. The ongoing pandemic is likely to see a substantial increase in postal voting, with election workers needing up to a week longer to count and verify those results. This year’s presidential election is currently scheduled to take place on Tuesday November 3, with the winner previously announced in the early hours of the next day. But fears over social distancing are likely to see people switch to mail-in ballots over in-person voting, adding extra time onto President Trump’s current term while the result is calculated. Vanita Gupta, from the civil rights group Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, told Yahoo News: ‘It’s a culture shift that’s going to be required. We should be prepared to wait at least a week before results can be certified.’ Gupta says politicians and their aides must now work to help people understand the likely delay in this year’s election results, which will almost certainly see President Trump take on likely-Democratic nominee Joe Biden. She continued: ‘People are going to have to be able to be patient to wait for the results. That’s an uncomfortable position for a lot of people. The media’s not used to it. The public’s not used to it. Joe Biden is almost certain to be the Democrat running against President Trump in November, with the party formally announcing its nominee in July (Picture: Getty) ‘Election officials need to be able to do their job to make sure they are counting every ballot. The danger would be if there is false pressure that gets built in and people are disenfranchised because of this false pressure.’ Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez agreed that a vote-by-mail ballot would require counting every single ballot before a result could be announced to ensure the result met the ‘gold standard’ required. Recent polls say almost a quarter of Americans now support mail-in ballots. MailOnline reported that of the six ‘swing states’ likely to help decide November’s result, only Arizona has substantial experience of conducting elections by post. Four fifths of the 2018 mid-term election votes were cast by mail there, with just a quarter of votes posted by voters in swing state Florida during the same contest. Almost 836,000 Americans have now tested positive for Covid-19, with close to 47,000 dying while battling Covid-19. Experts have warned social distancing measures limiting the size of gatherings may have to continue into 2022, and say that even if Covid-19 recedes in the coming weeks, it could well return during the colder winter months.
