Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?

98.85% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

1.15% Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.

0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

Joyner Library program helps students manage exam stress

    During finals, ECU's Joyner Library is hosting a study break for students with a unique twist.

    The library teams with Pet Partners to present three pet therapy sessions, which means bringing animals into the library area to interact with students.

    Library marketing director Dawn Wainwright said that research shows interactions with dogs and cats help students unwind, providing a good option for helping them deal with the stresses of the final exam period. The study breaks include refreshments and an opportunity to send a free postcard home or to a friend.

    This year, library staff are encouraging participants to share their experiences in pet therapy on social media, using the hashtag #GiveABook. Each time #GiveABook is used through Dec. 25, Penguin Random House will donate a book to Save the Children, up to 25,000 books.

    Visiting campus for furry hugs on Thursday, Dec. 11 were Zed, a 3.5 year old Great Dane owned by Heidi Leder and Scout, a Golden Retriever owned by Sean Greenlaw. Some of those encounters are pictured above.

    Additional events are set for Monday, Dec. 15 from 12:30 -1:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Dec. 16 from 5 - 6 p.m.
