The Presidential Election Is Here
remodeling.hw.net

With all three debates concluded and election day already here, the presidential election is getting more serious and citizens are more anxious than ever.

It has been said to be one of the most controversial elections due to the two candidates who have made it to the final running. We have Donald Trump, television celebrity, and then we have Hilary Clinton, former first lady and Secretary of State. If Clinton wins, she will be the first woman president. If Trump wins, he will be the first television celebrity to make it as a president.

The problem for a lot of Americans is they don’t like the two choices. Trump has continuously made racist remarks and derogatory comments against women. Hilary has had an FBI case against her in the search for her deleted 650,000 emails she had on a private server used for official communications.

Clintons email case was recently opened again by the FBI due to possible evidence on a laptop that belongs to Anthony Weiner, American politician and former Congressmen. Just two days before election day, FBI director said that they are no longer looking into the case because no new evidence has been found, therefore their conclusion has not changed.

The polls have become more and more undecided leading up to election day. Recently, Clinton had the lead and shortly after Trump had the lead. The predictions on the electoral map are constantly changing so it’s hard to say what the overall outcome will be.

Western Illinois University hasn’t been wrong since 1975 when predicting who will win the presidential election. Earlier this year they predicted that Trump will win. We will have to see if they can keep up their streak.

Due to all the outrage of this election, some are either choosing not to vote for either candidate or are voting for a third party. However, if you want to vote, you can do so at your local polling office if you haven’t already. Just be sure to do it by Election Day (Nov. 8) before they close.

May the results of the election be in your favor.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
