The 12 Days of the Election




In keeping with the time-honored American tradition of tangling up holidays to the point where we become thoroughly confused and, as a result, apathetic, here is my rendition of The 12 Days of Christmas combined with the upcoming Presidential election.

On the 12th day of the election, my country gave to me:

12 thousand alleged dead voters a-casting

11 million Facebook posts a-trending

10 federal investigations a-pending

9 thousand TV commercials spewing

8 hundred aides fact-checking

7 hundred flat denials

6 hundred accusations

5 contentious debates

4 gazillion misplaced emails

3 jillion robo calls

2 sniping candidates

And an election that may or may not be rigged.

Be sure to vote Nov. 8.
