Tonight, America and the entire world will be tuning in to one thing and one thing only: The 2024 presidential election results , and all the other smaller elections around the United States this evening. It’s a stressful time, no matter what side of the political aisle you fall.
If you want to tap into the political drama without actually sitting around waiting for the votes to be counted, or you just want to distract yourself from the stress of it all, you might consider one of the following films. Sure, you’ll still be thinking about the election but you’ll be thinking about different elections, some fictional and others historical, instead.
Let me know if you have a favorite election or political drama/thriller/comedy if yours isn’t on this list.
