The day is finally here – Election Day. If you work in politics, you will know what I mean when I say – whew, it’s over. Many, many people have been working tirelessly to make America bigger and better than ever. So, loud hand clap for that blood, sweat and tears. It always amazes me to see hardworking Americans come out of the woodwork to cheer on their chosen candidate.

Well, it is not a secret (have not kept it a secret on my blog that I vote red). At any rate – this is a celebratory/hopeful blog post – donning elephant accessories. Not only are they fashionable but highly appropriate this election cycle.

And everything on this list is $50 or less – hip, hip, hooray. Check out these cool items. Maybe a cute Christmas present for a loved one – or political junkie in your life?
