Will you watch election night coverage?

“I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer”
― Douglas Adams -
I'll probably watch the 11 o'clock news to see how local and statewide races are shaping up because I expect almost complete vote tallies from polls closing at 8 PM. I probably will go to sleep anticipating some decision or at least trend by the morning in the presidential race. After that time, it may depend on whether the Supreme Court is sleeping in.

The FBI is warning that several fabricated videos are misusing its name and insignia to promote false claims of problems at the polls.
A written statement purported to come from the FBI urges media and bloggers not to publish information about attacks at polling stations, saying dissemination of stories about violence could cause such incidents to increase. The FBI says that statement is false and did not come from the bureau.
One fabricated video that impersonates the FBI and a federal government agency urges schools to suspend educational activities through November 11 because of the risk of violence, shootings and riots. Another claims the FBI received 9,000 complaints about malfunctioning voting machines. The FBI says neither video came from the bureau and the contents of both are false.
The FBI did not identify who might be responsible for the manufactured videos, but it’s the latest warning of disinformation that’s being spread and the latest instance of the FBI singling out the misuse of its name and insignia to promote false narratives..

If only this was the only worry…
I’m thinking of all the many things he’s said that give us a glimpse of the future he envisions for America. Remember when he said “You have to get out and vote. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four years, it will be fixed, it will be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore.. In four years, you won’t have to vote again.“
I don’t know if America will be able to withstand all the ways Trumpism will seek to dismantle it.
And it’s “trumpism” I’m most worried about, bc it’s not just him, but all the people he’s surrounding himself with. The trumpification of America is pretty terrifying, but the muskification might be even more so…
