So if I had to guess, let me put this positive filter on it. I think the voting will be better than it should have been. In other words, I think that humanity is really going to try to rise to this challenge because the stakes are so high and we do have some time. It's not like a hurricane where you have maybe a few days. We had weeks. There should have been enough time to print things, reprint th…

Now how do you explain that? The French people in Switzerland had the same results as the French people in France and the German people in Switzerland had the same experience as the German people in Germany. But in Switzerland itself, in the same country with the same leadership, wildly different results. And same with the Belgian group. So they matched each of those three ethnicities matched very…
