In this photo taken Nov. 3, 2016, Moshe Sherizen, an undecided voter, is shown outside his home in Southfield, Mich. After all the sound, fury, fact, fallacy, bluster and blarney of the 2016 presidential campaign, there still are undecided voters out there. Really. And they’re not just people who’ve buried their heads in the sand. Some thoughtful people just do not know what to do with the choices they’ve been given, yet are determined to exercise their right to vote. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)
