Though I have made comments about this off and on since Tuesday I have come to the realization that there is nothing that any of us can do; I mean we can protest and write letters, e-mails and make phone calls but seriously Florida is severely messed up and anyone that thinks it is not, is also messed up (IMHO-in my honest opinion). And I know in the past there have been irregularities in voting and votes have been thrown out and even in other states during this election, things got messed up, but they had to know all eyes would be on Florida because it is jeb bush town. And as close as this race was proposed to be, we should have been ready for this, someone is always trying to mess up a good thing.
No matter the outcome, whoever wins, our nation will suffer now, everything is tainted (people, ideas, States, Congress, families are divided). We need to do it all over again, but that has never been heard of. We look like serious idiots to outside communist nations, we talk about democracy and can't get our own shit right. So like I said there is nothing left for us to do, except PRAY, and I am sorry that was not my first thought, I should not be saying all we can do is PRAY, that should have been the first thing we all did and then maybe we would not be in this predicament. Anyway, I will humble myself to the lord, get on my knees, PRAY and just wait. I can't even watch the TV any more, we keep getting special reports and breaking news leads....my stomach has not been good since Tuesday night. I can't take it!!! What is done in the he dark will come to light. Our nation will be stressed for a long while to come after this, it does not matter who is president now ....the next 4 years are going to be hell - the arguments are not going to end. And I feel very sorry for all of us.
As one of my Sorors stated, I can picture the mass exodus to Canada or some surrounding islands - The United States is about to lose it place in the ranks if we don't get a grip, and soon.
Lastly, I really don't understand why we don't have national standards on voting. What the hell is Florida and Chicago still doing using punch hole ballots, some states have computers, yet still others, namely my home town, has pull down/up levers ...what the hell is this mess. And we lead the Tech era....please
