Martial law was declared so that Congress could pass TARP without having to use the normal procedures, if I’m understanding correctly. TARP wasn’t passed for some time and we survived, but that didn’t stop martial law from happening.
One EMP from the now-armed Iran and/or North Korea, coming from the southern hemisphere where we have no radar defense, would do the trick nicely (if you’re Obama). And in November and December Obama will be out of the country, visiting his communist/terrorist pals in Cuba, Venezuela, etc. Perfect time to have his buddies attack - making chaos before any President-elect could be installed, and effectively making Obama POTUS for the “8-10 years” he said he’d be POTUS, back in July of 2008.
Just sayin’.
O said it on July 20, 2008 on CBS “face the Nation”

With timeline... And note that this was in July 2008 —before— the election.

I’m increasingly seeing such a possibility as more and more likely. There’s just too much evidence pointing towards such, both in terms of the actual/real capability for such to happen, as well as the political, and otherwise, reasons/desires to allow such. I’m also fearful that the purges in the military have been so thorough, that even if a unit would desire to ‘go rogue/dark’ to prevent such from happening, they no longer are privy to the critical information needed to do such.
I definitely lean towards this scenario as more likely, rather than less. The timing of such would logically be as you’ve suggested, but perhaps earlier? If months earlier, I’m not so sure that the resulting chaos would end soon enough, and enough order restored to have an election,
