Disheartening to read of so many countries with important elections and significant chances that they won't end well.... A trivial note, but thank you for answering my (internal) question of whether Icelanders, like folks in the U.S. who say they'll go to Canada, say they will move if things go badly.

As a VesturÍlendingar, I only wish I could move to Iceland if DJT were to somehow pull off a win. Crazy world.
