Just speaking for me: I'm sleeping like a baby....

I have zero stress about election day.

I have concerns, sure. Im still donating to races. Im still phone banking. I live too far to door knock or drive to polls, but encourage anyone who can. I voted weeks ago.

I am more concerned about days and weeks after the election however. I dont trust red state governors or ag's or scotus.

My wife on the other hand is a ball of nerves and i am walking on eggshells around her. She doesnt want to hear any rational or reason. So i just nod and hug.

So i get it. But, im not freaking out. It wont do any good at this stage. There is no benefit. I choose to be positive.

Ymmv.

Well, until one of my cats decides its time for scritches, which is usually around 4am.

But that has nothing to do with the election.

Im not losing sleep over that.
