I’m getting ready for bed a little later than I should. Very late considering that I was up around 6:20 AM so I could stop to vote on my to work.
It occurs to me though, I don’t know who won the election.
I’ve been pretty deliberately taking it easy this evening. Reading a book, watching a movie, and just generally avoiding any sort of media outlet. After all the political ads the past few weeks, and all the pundits punditing, I’m very happy to take a break from it.
I’ll hear the election results in the car on the way to work tomorrow. But for now, I’m just going to enjoy the silence. There’s only six weeks or so left until they start the next round of campaigns.

It was over at the stroke of 11:00. You could have gone to bed “early!”
But in order to know it was over at 11:00, I would have needed to be paying some sort of attention to the various news outlets. Which would have run completely opposite my goal of ignoring them.
As it was, I heard my first mention of the outcome within three minutes of turning on the radio.
