It’s election year! With the upcoming election, the 46th United States president will be selected. No matter the outcome, our country will be going under a large change. The four main candidates are Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, Jill Stein, and Chase Oliver. Trump will be representing the Republican party while Kamala will be representing the Democratic party. Jill Stein is a Green Party candidate, and Chase Oliver is a candidate for the Libertarian party. Through the media, Trump and Harris have made the biggest impact. Trump is running for his second term after his 2016-2020 term. Harris is running for her first term as President, but this is not her first term in office. Harris was the sitting vice president for the Biden term of 2020-2024. Harris took over for Biden once he chose to drop out of the election. Both candidates have received large forms of praise and criticism throughout this unique election year. Regardless of your choice of vote, if you are of age, we urge you to use your right to vote on Tuesday, November 5th! If you aren’t of age to vote, we encourage you to educate yourself on our government and politics, current and past.
