Notes From the Periphery on the Recent Election in the Empire

I don't really want to write about politics but I have to free my brain of it ☑️

The County Election, by George Caleb Bingham (1852)

Like many people, I have been feeding on a media diet rich in US election stuff for the past several months. Probably not healthy, but election nerdery is one of my addictions. I kind of wish American presidential campaigns lasted a month or two like the elections in other countries, to minimize the health damage, but whatever, it is what it is.
