So... who else here keeps having to get over moments of major anxiety and dread about the U.S. election next week? (lemmy.world)

And it won't even be over on Tuesday no matter who wins.

I just have to start distracting myself when it happens.

I honestly believed 2020 would be the end of it. I thought 4 years would be enough time to prosecute him for his crimes, and legally disqualify him from taking office again.

That we're back here, now, and it's still too close to call, it makes me dread the future even if we win.

Why is it close though? Kamala was doing really well and was up in all the polls for some time. Did she make some bad decisions, like stated she'd help Israel continue with their genocide, paraded around with Liz Cheney while praising Dick Cheney, work heavily with Mark Cuban who then said Kamala will be very pro corporation and should fire Lina Khan?

it seems close due to weird polling and the fact that 40% of americans dont vote at all. i bet harris wins by 5% or more, the margins that the congressional races are exposing.

But because of the electoral college basically the votes that really matter are only a few hundred thousand in like 7 states
