I’m not particularly upset with the election itself. I mean, we had more people vote in this election than in any other in our history – even if a large number of those votes were by people born over 100 years ago, and many that no longer reside in the states in which they voted. Of course, in some states it was perfectly fine for me to sign your ballot as you, without any signature verification being done. What’a funny is that in a county of 125,000 residents (men, women, children), there were over 200,000 ballots cast. I was abruptly informed that this was the new math, All of these have yet to be adjudicated and no one knows how the court (yes, eventually the Supreme Court) will rule on any of these challenges.

Well, it appears, that Joe Biden has won the presidential election. I “appears” because it’s the media that have called the race. The media don;t get to decide who’s president. Donald Trump has not conceded and there are several challenges his campaign has filed concerning voter fraud and other tactics in a few states so until those have been ruled on in Biden’s favor or Trump actually concedes, we don’t have a President-Elect today. The media can claim victory as they choose but until the counts are completed (Georgia, in fact, is going through a recount) nothing is official.

So, I’m just hanging out today, watching some English football (soccer, in the (U.S.) trying to not pay any attention to any of the news channels concerning the election. I have changed the channel over a couple of times and I heard something on some show I hadn’t really paid attention to before. It’s this: there’ll be more Republican voters going out on Tuesday to vote than Democrat.
