I'm sure you're aware that Nov. 3 was the day of the US presidential election. However, due to an unprecedented number of people requesting mail-in ballots, the winner is yet to be determined.
This has caused stress and anxiety for just about everyone — including celebrities. Some of the world's biggest stars have posted on social media over the last 24 hours to voice their opinions on the vote and the ways they're occupying themselves as we wait for the final result. Here are some of the best posts.
