Cheyenne Martinez- Week 12

The presidential election has always had me on edge since the beginning. I worked on election day and it wasn’t as wild as many people thought. There were many first time voters, especially young people, so that was nice to see. I voted for my first time as well. Ever since we closed the poll site, every few hours I would refresh my phone safari page that had the electoral college results of each party. I had my doubts that Republican Donald Trump would win since coronavirus first took place. It hit his presidential campaign hard, too hard for recovery, unfortunately. Therefore, I’m not really surprised Trump lost, just disappointed. Fake news won.. From the 2020 presidential election, I will remember the memories I made with my fellow co-workers on election day at the poll site but most importantly, how America has failed me.
