Post Traumatic Election Disorder

A new disorder whereby voters of the losing electoral party experience deep depression, grieving, mental anguish, anger, hysteria, disbelief, and in some extreme cases violence such as such as riots, protests, hate graffiti, and physical assault directed towards the winning political party and its members.
Many liberal Democrats experienced Post Traumatic Election Disorder when Donald Trump, a Republican, won the election for President of the United States.

Election

A lot of people in this country went out and voted on election day. All that effort they put into what they did is (always) at risk of being turned into bullshit (despite claims about the whole thing being a democratic process), which is why some people don't vote, they have a good reason not to.
What's the point of an election if the people who hold power don't have any regard for what everybody else in the country wants to happen? That's a king, not a president. Why call it anything else? Why deceive people who went out and voted? The founding fathers were slaveowners, not one of the rest of us.

electability

A word that has been overused and ripped of its meaning by the Basement Caucus aka Conservative ET. The word use to be used in the context of an US election and whether a candidate can win, rather then how it is used now. For many in the Basement Caucus, the word describes candidates who run on an America First message or something close to that in states and districts that are not safe Republican. They doompost about how this one candidate or another will lose because of their ideological stances, not realizing that much more factors in a campaign than that. "Electability" is also used as a way to deflect criticism from their horrible candidates that they support, instead buying into media smears and lines to stop the "far right" candidate from winning. Most often these electabros are complete idiots or apart of the establishment that they pretend to loathe in order to be apart of this nerdy group of losers known as Election Twitter.
"Kari Lake isn't electable because she said the 2020 election was st*len, and that will lose with voters in Phoenix"-dumb twitter user focused on electability.

Runoff election

A good name for an election, since the winner gets to run off with the money.
This year a black guy and Jew get to do the same thing thousands of WASP's did before them, run off with the money after the runoff election. Everybody seems to make a big deal of it, the same way they would do if it was a transvestite who started life as a female Christian then converted to Islam and had a sex change in his/her/it's 20's.

Spicy Election

An all-encompassing term for political activism that stokes or is stoked by civil unrest. It often involves violence or destruction. It encompasses revolutionary actions such as protest, riots, rebellion, and escalations up to civil war. This is counter to the democratic process of election, in which the people of a nation peacefully decide the direction of its rule.
The Haitian Revolution had a number of spicy elections on the road to independence.

flat election

A real Election where nobody cares who wins because all of the possible candidates are just as depressing and uninteresting as the others. I.A. We don't care who wins...you all suck, i'd rather take a nap.
I didn't even bother to vote, it's a flat election. Wake me up when it's over.
