Well I'm taking myself off the DU till after the election. [View all]

I am Canadian and do not want to interfere. I will be lurking though. And reading news on US politics because this election affects us all.

Best of luck. You got this. May it be a romp for Harris Walz. They have run an honest and admirable campaign. She has the strength and discipline to be a transformational President.

Good luck with that. I suspect if you are "lurking" though, you will find it quite difficult not to participate, which JohnSJ Oct 6 #14
