Walking that fine line between horrified fascination and sheer exhaustion this election season? Yup, us here at TAP Online, too. (Just when we think we’ve calmed Adam down, a new poll will be released.)
But I, trusty Web editor, have come up with a fix for our office malaise: The Election Day Advent Calendar. This lushly illustrated, full-color calendar allows you to count down the remaining days until the election while learning fun democracy-related facts. (If you’re really looking to kill time this afternoon, there’s a video.) Note, there is, as Sam has loudly objected, no chocolate involved, but that’s easily remedied by a bowl of candy underneath.
(Full disclosure, it’s put out by two good friends in Chicago, and back in my freelance days, I helped fact check an early iteration. But I swear — I’m not the only one heaping praise.)
