They know when it’s time to give all of us a break.
That’s good for our psyche, but it probably is not, in the long run, good for our democratic form of government.
We’re going through what is, probably, the most off of all of the recent off-year election cycles. Not that we didn’t need a little bit of a break, having come through one of the most contentious presidential elections many of us have ever witnessed.
And in the end, we learned, once again, about the importance of voting. There were about 155,506,321 votes cast for president in November. When all of those votes were counted, Joe Biden won not only the popular vote 81,283,361 to Donald Trump’s 74,222,960 but also prevailed in the Electoral College, 306 to 232.
