If you're looking for a peace candidate in this election, you won't find one. Whoever wins, we need to build a peace movement.

A lot of friends tell me how stressed they are about the outcome of tomorrow’s election.

I’m stressed too.

This has been a stressful two years.

Yes. That’s how long this presidential campaign has been going on.

As a blue state, New York has not seen many appearances by Harris or Trump and little in the way of their television ads.

But the tv ads have been non-stop for local congressional races. Thankfully, tomorrow will signal the end to them. At least for a while.

I voted early last Friday at the local John Jay High School in Brooklyn.

I voted for Kamala Harris with my eyes and nose wide open.

Of course, I was looking for a peace candidate who could win. There was none on my ballot.

It certainly wasn’t Kamala. In fact, her unwillingness to break with the Biden administration’s full-throated support for the Netanyahu regime’s destruction of a people may well cost her the election.

Many of my progressive friends cannot bring themselves to vote for her in light of her role and position on Gaza.

I don’t agree, but I understand.

Michigan, an important swing-state, has the largest population of Arab, Palestinian and Muslim voters.

Polling suggests many will stay home or will vote for Trump.

JD Vance says the Trump is the peace candidate.

But like everything that comes out of Trump and Vance’s pie holes, that is a lie.

It appears that Trump has been in contact with Netanyahu and has told him to end the war by the time Trump takes office.

That’s not peace.

That’s a directive to increase the pace of the war.

Speed up the slaughter.

Complete the genocide.

There is no peace candidate in this election.

Whoever wins we will still need a peace movement.
