Sore loser or Wishful Thinker?

More than two weeks after the November 5th election, emotions among my neighbors range from anger to disbelief to resistance (a polite way of saying revenge). I see more Harris-Walz signs on lawns than before Americans voted.

Lemme see, the five stages of grief are (correct me if mistaken): Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. I would guess the majority of University Heights residents are stuck in the first two stages. Acceptance? You can forget that. Defiance is more likely, as the plethora of signs suggest.

Today, I spotted a new placard that made me laugh. Have a gander at the Featured Image, which I shot using Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. The connotations are unmistakable, when thinking about the campaign’s single cat lady controversy or those specific to black beasties. You know?

Harris-Walz won San Diego County about 57 percent to Donald Trump’s 40 percent of the vote, only which 75 percent is tabulated. Seriously? Sixteen days after the election and a quarter of the votes are outstanding? Welcome to the Deep Blue state of California.
