A bit of levity to this anxious day.

Are you anxious? If not, can I have some of what you’re having?

But hey, while we’re all waiting to see if US Americans will blow up the entire world, here’s today’s reflection (and a bit of levity): how would the characters on The Office vote?

This is an impotant question since, as you probably know, Scranton is in a massively important swing state.

So let’s get to it.

Jim and Pam

Jim and Pam would proudly vote for Kamala. They would make a whole plan out of it and take their daughters with them to the polls. They know there’s nothing more important than guaranteeing a safe future for their children.

Pam’s desk would be full of Kamala campaign merch, and she would have been phone banking and canvassing for Democrats for a year.

Jim would wear an “I’m with her” t-shirt from 2016. He wants you to know where he’s at, but it just seems wasteful to buy a new one.
