It can happen here

A republic, if you can keep it.

This election is not about R vs D; it is about the character and civic virtue of American citizens. I am hopeful but not confident that we will collectively choose to preserve a Constitutional republic.

The problem isn’t a fashy-curious candidate; the problem is a substantial percentage of the electorate that wants to be lied to and that will spread lies in order to put that candidate in power. Re-read the Constitution. Remember your oath, if you took one.

It took some doing but my absentee ballot has been received/accepted by my county’s election administrator.

Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery. – Octavia Butler
