Good day kids, hope you are all well and staying safe out there in these crazy times.
Happy Election Eve!
The next 48 hours are going to be something to behold I am sure.
For better or worse, that is to be determined...
People are going to be watching this like it is a two day Super Bowl Event...
or longer, depending on whether or not we have clear cut winner and someone that concedes but odds are likely that neither one of those will happen anytime soon.
With that being said, the most important thing you can do is actually vote.
Voters have submitted mail in ballots and participated in early voting at record levels.
In some states, these totals have actually exceeded the overall total of voter participation in the 2016 election combined.More people voting is never a bad thing.
So unglue yourself from your favorite cable news channel (barf) for a second and get yourself out of the echo chamber of media that is loaded with people that share the same beliefs that you do for a minute and think about some things that you actually should before you cast your vote:
1. Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago?
2. Do you feel the country is headed in the right direction?
3. Do you honestly believe the party that you are voting for will actually make it better?
Very simple questions.
Of course, there are so many media distractions on both sides of the aisle that it is hard to think of things that simple.
One side says the other is an incompitent clown the other side says the other is involved in a sex ring, blah blah.
Throw in some people that still think COVID is a hoax and those that everyone with a (R) next to their name is a racist, sexist or worse.
Blah blah.Filter out the noise, unplug from the god awful social media and cable news and think for what's best for yourself and your family going forward.
When you do that, the choices before you will be clear.
Always #voteyourconscience
Peace.
