There’s one thing, in these wildly partisan times, that people of all political persuasions can agree on: This election has been an unceasing horror show, a hair-raising look into our country’s darkest and basest impulses.

But there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There is less than a week until the election. Tuesday, Nov. 8 marks the end of this specific national nightmare.

As painful as this process has been, we need to see it to the end. This is the last Globe’s Point that will be published in time for us to encourage you to vote. So this is us encouraging you, one last time, to vote.

This is a historic election. It is historically unpleasant, and if Hillary Clinton wins, she will be the first woman to become President of the United States. No matter your feelings about Clinton, she is in a position to possibly break an important barrier.

Pennsylvania is a swing state. The electoral college is a strange and undemocratic system, but it’s also one that disproportionately weighs your vote.

As a young person in Pennsylvania, your vote is one of the most important in the country.

Don’t waste this opportunity. By this point, you probably feel a little physically ill every time someone mentions the election. But you need to power through the fatigue and remember what’s at stake on Tuesday: Supreme Court nominations, foreign policy, women’s issues, the environment, immigration policy and LGBT issues.

And it’s not just the presidential election. Pennsylvania is embroiled in a close senatorial race, and state and local representatives determine much of the policy that affects us every day.

It’s tempting to disengage and ignore the toxic dialogue that’s been the defining factor of this election. But we have to exercise our civic duty to determine the direction of the country, at least until Tuesday. After that, you can bask in the sweet relief of no more political ads and a severe down-tick in political Facebook statuses.

The signs and bumper stickers can come down, and we can try to remember how to see each other as people again, instead of political pawns.

We’ll get to have significantly fewer arguments with our relatives.

At least until Thanksgiving, but that’s a thought for another day.
