Chloee Hoke: Election Night Anxiety

So far, Joe Biden has won the election. This election was very different from past elections. It has been a long week of never ending news.

This year obviously has not been the easiest with the coronavirus being a big part of the challenge. I understand that there are people in America who need to be very careful, and they might have to mail in their ballots. But if you can go to the grocery store with a mask on, you can go vote at the polls with a mask on. Right?

With that being said,  most of the people who mailed in their ballot were voting for Joe Biden. It was weird to me that after Joe Biden won people celebrated in massive crowds in the streets, but couldn’t vote in person. What about taking extra precautions because of the coronavirus? 

The people supporting Donald Trump have been calling fraud on the election. Some may say there is not, but some say there is. This election will most likely be settled by the Supreme Court. Nobody knows what will really happen.

Throughout the whole process of counting ballots there has been thoughts that there is fraud. If states were told to stop counting at night, but the next morning a state flipped from red to blue would you be confused. I was. How did all those votes get there.

Many people are saying that counting every vote is part of a democracy, but they are missing a word in that sentence. Counting every legal vote is part of a democracy. There was very low integrity all throughout the states in this election. 

A large number of people that are not for Trump believe that he is going to take away our rights. It doesn’t make sense to me because he has been our President for the last, almost 4 years, and he has done extraordinary things for our country. Again, it is hard to find the media that will show this.

In only two years of being in office, Trump has improved our country by so much. One being how many jobs have been created lowering the unemployment rate with record lows. The list goes on and on. 

I hope that when this election comes to an end we will be able to see peace. The anxiety levels of so many Americans through these last couple weeks have not been fun.  

This election will most likely end in court. Whether the winner be Joe Biden or Donald Trump, it should be an honest result.
