Opinion: Welcome to Election Day. Take a deep breath and be nice to your neighbors.

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

41% : Democrats are not garbage because they are against Trump and support the only viable candidate who opposed him.
36% : I'm an outspoken conservative, and after USA TODAY published my column explaining why I - and millions of other Americans - will vote for Trump, I received a wave of vitriolic backlash.
34% : The questions I ask myself: Would I have my neighbor over for ribs if he voted for Harris and I for Trump?
32% : Thanks to economic stimulus packages that Trump originated and Biden continued, inflation spiked to a 40-year high and Americans are still struggling with sharp increases in the cost of food, rent and other necessities.
30% : Opinion: I don't like Trump, but I'm voting for him.
21% : After a contentious election in 2020, Trump refused to acknowledge that he lost, resulting in the now-infamous riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
6% : In recent weeks, Trump and Harris have gotten nasty: Racial slurs and name-calling have been rampant.
5% : So Trump and Harris call each other awful names, and their supporters feel like they're in a battle with their neighbors based on who has a Trump sign in their yard and who has a "Hope is making a comeback" sign.
