This was inspired by a scenario I played in the American History USA Campaign Trail game. I played the 1896 election as Bryan, with his OTL running mate Arthur Sewall.

In it, Bryan won Iowa, and hence the whole election, by a mere 18 votes. If the historical election had been that close, anyone think there would have been massive court battles and the like? Would it have been a repeat of the 1876 mess?
