7. It's natural and normal to be apprehensive when an outcome is not known.

Keep the faith. As suggested up-post, if you have the ability, take someone to the polls.

I just got home from bringing two little old ladies to vote - both wearing "suffragette white" blouses. They can't believe they lived long enough to see this. One of 'em almost cried on the way home.

It was the best feeling to be able to contribute in a small way to their joy.

Maybe you could call your local senior center and do a little volunteering, or something?

Maybe it will quell that agita.

my brain cannot even bring to process the thought of anyone who is not a White male even considering to vote for Trump.

I have a feeling Hillary wins in a blow out.

GOTV, otherwise if you can't do that, you probably should take a break from this until this evening
