Election Day 8:47 p.m.

Among the crowd at the Lane County Republican Party watch party, Katherine Nordstrand waits for local election results. Despite feeling confident that Trump will win, she worries about Oregon’s future. “Oregon is hard on the farmers,” she said. She worries that Democratic Party representatives are making it difficult for second-generation farmers to succeed.

On a national level, Nordstrand believes that the country has shifted away from traditional religious values, and as someone with a strong sense of faith, this upsets her. “There’s a strong emphasis on transgenderism and gay marriage,” she said. A believer in family values, Nordstrand thinks groups like Black Lives Matter have perpetuated harmful messaging to hurt American families. “Black Lives Matter wasn’t about the blacks, it was about the queers,” she said. “They want no fathers in the family.” She is hopeful that a Trump victory will fix the issues she sees in modern America.
