This election has brought out the best and the worst in people. Negative ads have been rampant, at least in Virginia which is considered a swing state. We all have our own opinions and preferences as to who should be the next President. I’m not going to address that here. What I do want you to think about it the polls show this to be very tight, too close to predict. We’ve been here before.
With emotions running high, remember to exercise your right to vote and then be respectful while the results are tallied. If we wake in the morning without a clear winner, as I expect to happen but you never know, be patient. Be respectful. If your favorite wins, remember that is means someone else’s favorite lost. This is Democracy in action.
If your candidate wins, celebrate in a safe and non-destructive manner. If your candidate doesn’t win, understand the other side is entitled to their celebration and respect that.
Be civil, be respectful and above all, if you voted, you did what you could. If your guy wins, yea. If he didn’t, well, you did your best.
Stay Safe, be patient and cross your fingers for the candidate of your choice!
I was wrong. We had an answer by the time I woke up. It may not be the answer I was hoping for, but it is an answer we all have to live with. Now, on to fulfilling my responsibility as an American. Allow the victors their right to party, then get on to business. Respect the differences and if I can not bring myself to respect the man, I must respect the office. This is what so many of us have fought for, given our time, personal liberties and in some cases our lives.
