Too many people here want to laugh at such concerns and pedantically dismiss them as unrealistic. I can't help but wonder what country they've been living in the last four years. They certainly haven't been living in my America.

I desperately hope that high-ranking and powerful people on our side have thoroughly planned ways of responding to extra-Constitutional attempts to steal this election. If an unthinkable situation were to arise, I'd be ready to follow their leadership and do my part.

But without leadership, I can't really do much on my own. Except maybe throw cans of tuna fish.
