The best possible result from election day would be Kamala Harris winning the popular vote by greater than 4% and easily winning the electoral college. If that doesn’t happen, expect another 60 to 90 days of political turmoil from lawsuits, appeals, allegations of election fraud and sporadic acts of violence that will surpass the chaos of January 6, 2021.

I don’t need polls to tell me the definite “Losers” in this election: civility, truth, integrity, candor and self-respect.

This is the 18th presidential election of my lifetime. I don’t remember anything about my first two elections (Dwight Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956.) Certainly a different time regarding morals and acceptable behavior in politics in my youth. For example, I don’t think that a candidate who was found liable for sexual assault or being a convicted felon awaiting sentencing, would even get a whiff at being a candidate for national office in 1960.

If Kamala loses, I expect to read countless articles and criticisms on how she ran her campaign. Based on my observations, she ran a fairly positive campaign that exhibited a lot of enthusiam and energy.

Now we leave it up to the judgement of voters… why does this make me so apprehensive and discouraged?
