I don't see that happening! A good percentage of American still believe that Trump's hatemongering will make their nation great again. So if Trump wins, mostly educated class people might want to jump into alternative assets like crypto or Gold or Silver just for capital protection. In that case, we may see some additional liquidity in the market which may drive the price higher. But if Joe Biden wins, Americans will hope that he will bring reformations to take the economy back on track. In that case, these additional liquidity may not flow into the crypto market. But whatever happens, it will be miniscule compared to the size of cryptocurrency market which is most unlikely to make a lasting impact.

There is uncertainly before the Election day and after it. Trump will not leave WhiteHouse immediately after the Election day and he has months to do something with his President power. Let's skip the future scenarios and do retrospective findings on how Bitcoin (in price and volume) changed before and after the Election day 4 years ago (in 2016).

I think we’ll see a pump after the election. There’s lots of uncertainty in a lot of things in the world atm, I think Trump will win & then we have a settled leader. I think we’ll reach yearly highs in December.

Price increased and volume rose too. The question is "Will the history repeat its steps?". I don't know and the conditions from SES (socialeconomic status) to public health problems and political environment in this year is very different than in 2016.
