It's something that has been weighing heavily on my mind because of this president. I think, you know, the racialized tensions. And we know that it's going to be problematic. And It's not enough just to have an election observer. It's not enough to. I was election observer in 12 to have this, just college kids sit there for 12, 13 hours, like that's not going to be enough. (32:08–32:11)
