Election Day

     Election Day was yesterday and it was actually raining here. The rain started the night before and was much needed and most welcome.
     At any rate I did go out in the rain to vote even though I have been feeling a bit under the weather. Some of my friends said they weren't going to vote but I encouraged them to do so. If they didn't want Mrs. Clinton nor Mr. Trump to vote for the last name on the ballot i.e. the least likely to win... but at any rate to VOTE and make your voice heard.

     I'll not tell who I voted for, only this... Long before the election I'd decided that if I voted for the winner I would not gloat, if for the loser I would not pout. I believe religion and politics are best kept to oneself unless one is in the business of religion or politics.
     Donald J. Trump is the new President-Elect of the United States of America, no matter who likes it or not. Now it is the patriotic duty of all Americans and even citizens of our allies to support him.

     I did watch some of the election returns on the news and I must admit the station I was watching did seem a bit (a lot?) biased towards one candidate over the other. Now the news reporting is more two faced than I thought possible.
 One second they were crowing about how we need to come together as one Nation. The next second they were picking apart exit polls and the people polled by sex, race, religion, education... almost as if to say "If you don't like Trump, here are exactly the people to blame".

     Anyway, the election is over & the results are in. All I can hope and pray is the real winners are the American people. Like it or not, America seems to be the world leader so perhaps if we Americans can someday get along, so can the rest of the world.
