I feel really naive right now for how much I'd let myself believe otherwise. And I was never expecting a landslide, I was just trusting what I saw and felt.

Y'all really need some kind of federal law or constitutional amendment guaranteeing some maximum voting time & minimum counting time. Make every state have to explain their plan for achieving those some time ahead of the election, & huge penalties for any failure. & Election day = holiday ofc
The only thing keeping me going is my belief that this shift right comes down to: American hate inflation and the incumbent president. Guess who’ll be the incumbent if Trump wins and what plans he has for inflation.
I also finally deleted Twitter tonight, so that actually helped, too.
I have maybe a similar defect in that I pay attention to what’s going on and then think about all the people I know and know of. I can’t reconcile what I know is going on with how all the nice people I know and love vote. It doesn’t make sense. I thought we had this time.
