The forthcoming election is one of the most important to me since I first cast a ballot more than four decades ago. And yet this time – while I’ve never felt more invested in an election’s outcome – I won’t have a vote.
I’m not talking about the next federal poll in Australia – the one that’s most likely to be held early next year. No, I’m referring to the United States presidential election in November, the result of which will reverberate with profound global consequences and – therefore – with significant personal others as well.
