Depressed and angry
This election has me depressed and angry. Why? From all accounts, it seems that a good portion of the country are bigots and want the government to be your nanny. Another large portion seem to be morons, easily frightened into voting for someone who has done more to make them insecure. There also seems to be a rather large and fanatical fundamentalist Christian population. You know what the difference is between Muslim and Christian fundamentalists? Let me know.
I also think there's some really bad stuff going on in various election locations, including vote rigging. No, I don't have proof and I don't know if it would have made a difference. But the story of the numbers remains to be told.
The one heartening thing is that a lot of people did go out and exercise their right to vote. Yay us.
