For months before the election took place we heard seemingly random chatter of what would happen if no one was president by January 20th. The situation is best described in this interview:
The current situation is as follows: It's looking like we have a very good chance there will be no electoral winner by 2021 and even into January 20th. That date is currently 30 days away, meaning in 30 days courts have to reach the SCOTUS and they have to take the case and decide it before the 20th.
The election is likely to reach a scenario where at least 2 states from Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Arizona will flip to potentially leave Joe Biden unable to win the electoral college majority. What many don't yet realize is that in order to win from there Trump needs to overturn election results for at the very least 3 total states which are not named Nevada. I can already see the strong cases in Michigan and Georgia easily overturning those calls, Arizona and Nevada has intriguing cases but aren't budging anytime soon.
Now enter the interesting part; if Trump overturns only Michigan and Georgia at the SCOTUS he still can't win, but he can stop Joe Biden from losing by scoring Nevada. Now you may understand why NV is so important.
The final and most important analysis of the journey to Jan 20th happens 4 days from now when the electoral college members cast their vote (or don't) for president. I've seen many people say this day doesn't matter because the election results can be overturned but that's overlooking a very realistic danger: unfaithful electors. If an elector casts a vote on December 14th they may chose not to modify that vote when congress formally convenes to vote for the president with the VP presiding. Though not typically what we imagine the term unfaithful elector to play out as, it's essentially the same thing. Unfaithful electors can go either way, for or against Trump so Jan 6th will likely be a highly unpredictable event to watch for.
If that manages to play out for another month things get very interesting. I have much more to say on the matter but right now December 14th is far too important to overlook. The difference between no votes 3 days from now and commitment from the electoral college will be magnified later down the road. Electors don't simply change their vote without pitchforks being deployed no matter who the vote flips for.
