Whether you were like me — an onlooker from thousands of miles away and in a different timezone, watching states like Georgia and Wisconsin flip in real time — or like my Cardinal-affiliated, America-based friends and colleagues who were likely losing sleep, it was a nerve wracking spectacle that tested everyone’s mental fortitude.

There is no better feeling than waking up on a Badger game day, with ecstatic energy in the atmosphere, the people of Madison united in red and the smell of brats roasting on the barbeque.

Heading into the Nov. 3 election, we are in crisis mode.
