Short answer: people could care less.
Long answer: generally, I don’t see people around me caring about it that much, other than those internet warriors who like to stir up argument on Facebook. The news doesn’t broadcast it, but they do report about it and give thought/prediction… But sonetimes it doesn’t even make it first in the order. It’s like people think the election isn’t important and they need more time for other stuff. I think I’m more interested in the election than most people, thanks to my participation here. But of course I can’t give any opinion here because I lack insight.
