Welcome to #CheckIn for Tuesday, November 2nd!
Today is the second day of Día de los Muertos, It is also All Souls Day.
All Souls' Day celebrates and honours the dead. According to Catholic belief, when people die, their souls go to one of three places: heaven, hell or purgatory, which is thought to be where most people end up to be cleansed and perfected before they enter heaven. It is primarily a Catholic holiday but it is also celebrated within a select few other Christian denominations.
All Souls' Day is held on multiple different days depending on the sect of Christianity. In Western Christianity it is held on 2 November. Beliefs and practices associated with the day vary greatly depending on sects and countries.
It’s also Election Day in the USA, the day on which general elections in the United States are held.
This off-year election includes the regular gubernatorial elections in New Jersey and Virginia. In addition, state legislative elections will be held in New Jersey and the Virginia House of Delegates (the lower house of the Virginia General Assembly), along with numerous state legislative special elections, citizen initiatives, mayoral races, and a variety of other local elections. Two of six special elections to the United States House of Representatives will take place also on November 2 or earlier as a result of either deaths or vacancies. The first of these was held on March 20.
It’s the birthday of singer k. d. Lang, actor David Schwimmer, and rapper Nelly.
The topic, of course, is open.
