My 6am til close (at our polling place was officially 2:10am we signed out on the hours sheet but it was closer to 2:30 that we all left the school and arrived to our cars) shift means I worked over 20, nearly 21 hours, straight through as an election official in the busiest ward in Madison outside of downtown. They're definitely trying to get me on the chief inspector track just as fast as I will let them..... 

Then I heard on the radio the results at like 2:30am while driving to my parents house to get my dog and then talked to them for a while. It is the realpolitik I expected even though it's nothing at all what I wanted... And I will wait on final results to know how bad it is with no balance of powers but also, this wasn't a surprise tbh  

But I need to sleep and tomorrow I plan to hermit until I go in to work and I dunno yet how much peopling I will have in me. 

I'm exhausted and I need sleep and people should have been paying attention to realpolitik not hopium but here we all are now

 Bonne nuit. If you're looking for me, you know where to find me. At least for now for this time.
