its dumb all over and no end in sight. actual voting day will not be the end.
litigation over voting fraud, the blame game will go on. and so on, and so on.

Well that didn't take long.
Actually, we get the American election campaign almost 24/7 even though we have a Federal election campaign of our own underway up here at the same time.
Wouldn't it be nice if A) the US Presidential campaign was limited to several months, B) the candidates focused on the issues instead of mud slinging, and C) if the parties and their followers showed a bit more tolerance for their opponents? Unfortunately Presidential campaigning seems to never end, mud slinging is the top priority, and the 2 sides seem to have absolutely no respect for the views of their opponents. I guess that is why it is difficult to get good people involved in politics these days.
The only real difference up here is that an election campaign is limited to just over a month and there are very tight spending controls in place.
