I'm voting in person at my polling place tomorrow morning. I live in the country, and I expect a line, but nothing insurmountable. I just can't believe we're here, and nearly half of us are willing to enthusiastically flush our country down the drain. It's so surreal.

Take a look at Wikipedia’s list of the world’s forty-or-so most democratic nations.

The top two? Probably Norway or Sweden.

The USA? About #35 or so.

The three nations that LOST WORLD WAR TWO?

Germany? About #6. Italy and Japan? Both higher than the USA !

Think on that. The USA’s founders defeated a monarch and made what?

AN OLIGARCHY. From “RULED BY ONE” to “RULED BY A FEW.”

A DEMOCRACY IT AIN’T! Lower than Germany, Italy and Japan.

Voters in about sixteen states have the DIRECT INITIATIVE. A minority propose a law and put it on the ballot; a majority can make it a law. I live in one of those states.

Is your state a democracy? If not, do you want a democracy?

If he loses, it will be scary civil unrest. If he doesn’t lose, it will be even scarier.

Thank you. I'm hoping we finally turn the corner on this frightful mess we're in!

Thank you, this could be an election for the ages determining whether we will be more like 1933 US or 1933 Germany.

Also wishing you guys all the best, as posted elsewhere. Will definitely be thinking of you all tomorrow. Stay safe.

Thank you. This is some scary shit!

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Thank you. I know Trump would exacerbate global warming and, being unchecked, will affect the whole world. We are thinking and concerned about you also.

thank you marionville. it seems an important election for anyone on the planet whether they're aware or not. I'm sure there will be some chump and disorderly conduct should he lose, so many of us will have our slingshots at the ready. y'all take care.

Thank you! Hoping for the best, but preparing for a let down.

Thank you but I've been ignoring all reports. Here we have mail in ballots and I voted some time ago. I'm done and don't want to go through the stress of back and forth predictions.

I also submitted a quote but, as usual, got bumped off. I simply don't understand why. Maybe once we get bumped off our names goes in a list which makes it harder to submit.
Here's my quotes so maybe this won't be a waste of time.

“Reverence is the heart’s deepest form of respect, of love. It accepts that we, as individuals are not essential to the Universe.” Sister Wendy Beckett From the book “Pilgrim in the Great Bird Continent.” Essays on Darwin’s notes

Thanks, we can use all the good vibes we can get. I have a good feeling about it this time. Our job won't be over, but I think it will be a good start and a step in the right direction.

I’m wondering if this site is restricting all political postings. If so, yours kind of slipped through, though I am not sure the algorithm would have flagged it as outright political. I guess we will see if so many of our banned friends are allowed back on to post after tomorrow.

Locating my passport!

Thank you!! I feel optimistic, however I recall all TOO vividly what happened 8 years ago. The cult of Trump is larger than anyone would have ever dreamed. I am positive if Donnie wins it is the end of the USA as we knew it.
