(La Porte, IN) - Election Night in America Tuesday could be filled with anxiety, excitement and even fear over potential violence.  Many experts believe the often volatile race for president is too close to call.

Former La Porte mayor Leigh Morris did not want to predict the outcome but said it’s time for whoever is elected president to try and bring each greatly divided side of the political spectrum together.  Morris said the only way for things to get done for all Americans is if democrats and republicans work toward the middle.  Morris, 85, said he’s never seen the country so politically divided and it’s time for the next president to call stakeholders to the table to begin working out their differences. 

La Porte County Republican Party Chairman Mitch Feikes said he believes president Trump has the momentum but felt the race was still too close to make any predictions. 

La Porte County Democrat Party Chairwoman Carol McDaniel said she also felt the race was too close to predict the outcome but is rooting for Joe Biden to come out on top.

Local political insiders say if any violence breaks out over the outcome of the election it would likely be strictly in the larger cities and places where violence has broken out in previous months.
