Walk away

We just came back from the polls and it was a big Hillary party!

We stuck around and had an exit poll party in the park next door. Not one Bernie voter came out and we shared our bagels and coffee. I know every single person who went to my polls this morning (I live in one of the smallest towns in NJ) but I didn't know they were all going to vote the same. One of my neighbors is a conservative leaning Independent who voted for Hillary/against Trump!

I'm so happy to be living in a sane neighborhood!

These are all adults and middle class/educated people. Bernie wasn't really discussed. It was mostly about how freaking crazy Trump is!

They will be seeing the first Woman POTUS at the beginning of her run against a dangerous threat to our nation! This race will go down in History and Bernie will be a footnote.
