The unit rule
 
Just been reading about this. One upshot being that, come January, the President of the United States could turn out to be... Nancy Pelosi!

The US election nightmare scenario

Your politics is endlessly fascinating...

20th Amendment

Section 3. If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.

Congress would choose an acting president, which would not have to be Nancy Pelosi.
