What to watch for on election night

With the race for control of Congress close and unprecedented numbers voting early this year, the results on election night are likely to be unusually volatile. If the polls are accurate and Democrats win back the White House and Senate, hopes would build of a larger fiscal stimulus. A narrower win for Joe Biden with Republicans holding the Senate is perhaps the worst outcome because it raises the spectre of a contested result and would radically reduce hopes for further stimulus. A Trump victory would most likely mean a continuation of the gridlock seen in recent months.
