It is clear to the Democratic party that if Donald Trump is to win the 2016 Presidential election, the future of America does not look good.

Alejandra Arrelano is a 28-year-old Hispanic female that resides in Lafayette County and is not fond of Trump at all.

“It’s going to be bad if Donald Trump is president,” Arrelano said.

Arrelano hasn’t really paid much attention to the election at all, but with that being said, she is still very much against Trump.

Arrelano has never voted in an election before and is still to this day not a registered voter but knows who she would vote for if she wanted to.

“I think I would go for Hillary Clinton,” Arrelano said.

It’s been a commonality throughout this Presidential election that even though a person may not pay much attention to it, they still feel very strongly against Trump because of the things they see or hear coming from him in the media.

Nicki Moore, 39, is an African-American resident living in Oxford and is really hoping Secretary Clinton pulls off the victory in this election.

When asked about how she felt about each candidate’s tactics, she didn’t take long to speak her mind in just a few short words.

“Trump, can’t stand him. Hillary, I’m rooting for her,” Moore said.

Moore also does not think America is set up well for the future after this election, saying that the world was “coming to the end,”.

Mary Flanders, 40, is a Caucasian woman with a daughter that she is scared for to live in this world with either of these presidential candidates.

On the outlook for the future of America, she was not so hopeful saying, “Well, it depends on who’s elected. I hope it’s going to be okay because I have a little girl, and it scares me to death about this election, honestly, because I’m not so sure America is very stable whichever way it goes.”

Flanders is affiliated with the Democratic party but will actually be voting for the Libertarian, Johnson.

She also went on to say that “The economy and stabilization,” are the most important issues to her in this election.

That has been a common recurrence when people are asked what the most important issues are to them and their families.

Geardline Campbell, 50, is an African American woman that is a strong Democrat and very against Trump.

“I think if Hillary is our president then our future looks great, but if Trump becomes president then things will be worse than what they are,” Campbell said.

Campbell also agreed with Flanders that the state of the economy is very important.

“The economy is one of the issues I want them to get ahold of, crime is bad,” Campbell said.

Campbell also thinks that Trump’s campaign has been ‘a lot of downfall’ because of all the trash talk that has occurred in his campaign.

Demerits Carothers, 32, is an African American male that is just hoping for the best for America and hopes that the future will get better but is unsure what is going to happen.

“Well, my guess is, I’m hoping that everything gets better. You know or whatever. It’s got to get better. Other than that, that’s my only thought on it. I just hope everything gets better.”

Carothers saying that he hopes America gets better three times in one quote goes to show how desperate America is hoping that America can get to a better place from where it is now.
