    Be disappointed in the country firstly, and then question the accuracy of polling averages.

    Or fear deeply for our democracy if any **** is pulled.

    Same, but I have seen people acting certain.

    I was pretty certain in 2016. I put $4k on it. So when I woke up and saw that I was wrong, I realized I had to change my perspective.

    Alright, alright. The results are now viewable to non-voters.

    I am 90% sure Biden wins. But 10% is still an outcome.

    Again all I can do is vote. I can't help anything. I will say that I felt that the last election and this one was more important that I vote. Those are the only two elections I voted in.
    Didn't vote for Barack, or clinton or W, or George Sr.
    I missed a lot of elections, but none seemed as important as this one and the last. My voting has largely been against President Trump rather than for the other candidate.
