I feel like I've been tense the past 2 days because of the election. It's like my whole body has its 'fingers' crossed, and I just really hope Biden wins. A few days before the election, I had so much energy and I was ready to make a sign, go out to the streets and start protesting for a peaceful transfer of power. However, as the election draws to a close and the race is much tighter than I expected, I feel like I have to wait until Nevada is called to even begin making my sign, and my energy has kind of dissipated as well. I have hope that I'll have a spark again if Biden pulls through, and that I'll be able to start advocating against the president's desperate power grab and efforts to bypass the democratic process. Our democracy is what's really at stake if he tries to sidestep our system to stay in power.
