About a hundred people gathered on Hinds Plaza in Princeton Wednesday afternoon to spread the message that every vote should be counted in the general election. Presidential candidate Joe Biden won two more states Wednesday evening, Wisconsin and Michigan, as the mail-in ballot count continued. President Donald Trump is pursuing legal challenges to stop the mail-in ballot count in some states.

The “Protect the Results” rally was sponsored by the Princeton-based Coalition for Peace Action, Indivisible Princeton, and Indivisible Cranbury. Attendees wore face masks. Many people brought posters to the event, which was one of several hundred rallies held across the country on Wednesday.

I have such a feeling of dread for this election cycle. We have a president who is actively trying to invalidate the election, he’s stirring up hatreds and divisions in this country to maintain his hideous reign of errors. His armed supporters are trying to stop the count in many cities and municipalities of this country. It’s a replay of election 2000 but much worse because Trump is such a ruthless amoral demagogue. Will he succeed in thwarting the democratic process?
