“A chocolate croissant and world peace,” Patty, who recently moved to Austin from Los Angeles, told Fox News.

Adiba had a more practical wish.

“I wish health for myself because I have very bad allergy going on,” she said.

Many had high hopes for America’s future.

“I think that my Christmas wish for America would be that whoever gets voted into office, we can all fully back and support and try and find the best way forward more united rather than fighting each other the entire year,” one woman told Fox News.

A California resident said she wanted America to see “an increase in mental and emotional health for everyone.”

The bespectacled Austinite said she wished for Americans to have abortion access this holiday season.
