Gwynette also looks forward to celebrating if her candidate wins. “I’ll treat myself to a cupcake,” said Gwynette. She is excited to participate in this historic day.

Under a hot sun, students fan themselves with pink ballots as the polling line grows at USC Village. Chase Landa, a USC student, stands with friends inching closer to the voting building, still undecided on his candidate. Though he identifies as a moderate, he leans Republican. When asked what excites him most about this election, Landa replied, “For it to be over, to be honest; there’s just a lot of stress around it.” Landa worries about the outcomes, fearing shifts toward extremes like dictatorship or socialism. Regardless of the results, he plans to celebrate by continuing his everyday, happy life. (Photo by Emery Davis/Cronkite News)
