If the election is close, it's going to be a mess.

I mean, it's a valid objection, but we've never had anyone push that far. Nixon gave in, in 60, but he was not an incumbent. Same with Gore. I wish they would just flip a coin on national TV, I can live with that better than the mass hysteria from all sides in Nov.

Gore only gave in because he lost his case. He fought it all the way up to the Supreme Court. I would expect that a close result in November might follow a similar path. There will be court ordered recounts in the state(s) in question, the results will get appealed and the SC will make a final ruling on the dispute long before inaugural day.
