General Discussion

81 in less than a month and have also been battling as long as I have been able to, I will STILL continue to fight.

I am a woman who never served in the military. But I did serve my country as a Peace Corps Volunteer, a public school teacher, a USAID contractor, and a USG employee before moving into service in international organizations abroad, where I retired.

I am currently devastated by the outcome of this election and especially by the selfishness, stupidity, ignorance, and outright meanness it has demonstrated among the US voting population.

BUT this election was NO BLOWOUT, such as were the elections of 1972 (Nixon v. McGovern) and 1980 (Reagan v. Carter)!

NEVER FORGET THAT! And, as the votes continue to be counted, the Harris-Walz losing margin grows narrower. Not enough, of course, but it does show that Total Scumbag still has plenty of opposition in the USA. It just needs to be channeled effectively.

I only just received official word today that my absentee ballot has been counted: that's another one in the Harris-Walz column. That's hardly enough to turn the tide and my BLUE state (MD) was already called for Harris-Walz on Nov 05. But it puts my support for them on the record.

I have also contributed to the Harris-Walz recount efforts in an attempt to get ALL votes in House and Senate races counted.

Physically, I may not be able to do much and I live abroad most of the time. But I will continue to do what I can.

I do understand and respect your decision, your service to our country, and your support of Good vs. Evil. Thanks for being on DU.

I also have a sneaking feeling that your own fighting instincts will also return.
