It will likely be a few days before we know the results of the presidential election. In the meantime, “freaking out about the election” discourse has reached a fever pitch. It can feel like there is so much at stake, so much uncertainty, and so little we can control on election day. In fact, anxiety may be a bipartisan issue this election.

Howard Lavine has been looking into that. He’s a professor of political science and psychology at the University of Minnesota and he chatted with MPR News host Cathy Wurzer about election stress and how to combat it.
