We are at the finish line which will most likely be moved several times before anyone reaches the finish. Today is Election Day in the United States. Traditionally, it is the final sprint at the end of that quintessentially American marathon known as the race to win the White House. In 2020, the tradition was shaken by concern. Closed buildings, masked faces and toxic politics. This describes this election day in the United States. Across the country, emergency plans have been put in place in the event of unrest. According to our correspondents, the tension is palpable, fueled by the refusal of a president and a vice-president to commit to a peaceful transfer of power in the event of defeat in these elections. Due to an unprecedented number of mail-in ballots that have yet to be counted, we may not know the winner until tomorrow or later this week. Patience is a virtue and a necessity. There is one aspect that is familiar to us: two men vying for the presidency. Democrat Joe Biden is asking voters to give America another chance. President Donald Trump is asking voters to give him four more years.
