Tell us: How do you plan to handle political disagreements at the Thanksgiving table?

The Press Democrat would like to hear from readers about your feelings heading into Thanksgiving and what your plans are for dealing with them if rude wars of words break out over the turkey.

Thanksgiving is a typical American holiday that focuses on gratitude and solidarity within the family. But the American home is for many people a home deeply divided after perhaps the most controversial presidential election in recent memory. Is there a political division in your family? How are you going to handle it? What are your coping strategies or do you avoid certain family members altogether? Are you struggling with how to bridge the gap or deal with your own feelings?

This isn’t the first Thanksgiving after a tough election. Do you think it is different this year?
