First off PLEASE DO NOT RUIN THIS POST
Do not argue for who is going to be the best president

This election is absolute horrible

We got a person who is a criminal and a man who doesn't seem to care about what he says for the ENTIRE world to hear!

Basically, this election is determined whom is going to win:
Donald trump or Hillary clinton

It's kinda annoying how we came to this point in the election on both sides, Republican and democrat.

Do you wish we could get another election?


Please do not hate on other peoples viewpoints.

There was a relatively good mix of candidates this election season.
From Bernie Sanders to Ted Cruz and a good amount of figures on the different ideological gradations between them.

Unfortunately, when you give a country the option to elect their leader, you give them the option to elect a bad leader.

With this being said, RealClearPolitics have averaged out all of the Favourable/Unfavourable polls done for both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
Hillary Clinton has a 37.2% Favourable rating and a 56.2% Unfavourable rating.

Donald Trump has a 35.2% Favourabe rating and a 58.0% Unfavourable rating.

However, I do not believe that a majority can infringe upon the rights of a minority.
This looks like an election cycle where the majority of people are going to have to hope for a better outcome next time.

Is this disheartening? Absolutely.
Is it a necessary side effect of democracy and freedom? Absolutely.

I do agree with you! It just happens. At least we have a choice on who we can vote into office rather than them just being put there .
