1. What are two factors contributing to the sense among experts that this election is taking place under unusually volatile conditions?

union blockade

explanation:

the union blockade in the american civil war was a naval strategy by the united states to prevent the confederacy from trading.

the blockade was proclaimed by president abraham lincoln in april 1861, and required the monitoring of 3,500 miles (5,600 km) of atlantic and gulf coastline, including 12 major ports, notably new orleans and mobile. those blockade runners fast enough to evade the union navy could only carry a small fraction of the supplies needed. they were operated largely by british citizens, making use of neutral ports such as havana, nassau and bermuda. the union commissioned around 500 ships, which destroyed or captured about 1,500 blockade runners over the course of the war.

isaiah 53: 4-6 and   romans 5: 6-8 speak how jesus was pierced for our transgressions,   crushed for our iniquities and that god demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, christ died for us, and by his wounds we are all healed.   psalm 22: 6-7 and   matthew 27: 39-40   correlate basically by the fact that all of the people who didn´t believe in jesus, were telling him that if he was so powerful as he said he was, he should save himself.     matthew 27: 35 and psalm 22: 18 refers about how they divided his clothes among them   and cast lots for his garment. isaiah 53: 8-9 and matthew 27: 57-60 express the process of the burial of jesus. psalm 22: 15-16 and luke 23: 33-34 speak about his crucifiction, the humilliation of being surrounded by sinners, and asking the lord for mercy for humanity. finally in john 19: 33-35   and isaiah 53: 12 speak about the most important prophecy, the testimony of a living god, who resurrected and buried all of our sins and guilt, for all of us. when he was crucified a man saw a sudden flow of blood and water from his wound, and he gived testimony, for all o us to believe, that he poured out his life unto death,   and was numbered with the transgressors.   for he bore the sin of many,   and made intercession for the transgressors.
