I'm back home, I voted! Hey America, guess what? For the first time ever, the candidate I voted for looks like me! It was a terrific feeling, even if I had to get up at ass o'clock to do so. I made the mistake of commenting once or twice on the sky getting lighter and Mr. R said,"Yes, we call that sunrise..." Yeah, laugh it up, funny boy. So, the Fam voted, and no matter what the outcome, we were part of history today.

Well, I feel a bit stupid to say "Congrats for voting" since it's what a person that lives in a democratic country should do, but I'm proud of you. :D
And, I hope this day will be remembered as the day America elected its first black president, and not its oldest president.

*makes more coffee - today will be a long day*

wow, how early did the polls open for you? i thought it was 7:00. wish i'd done that -- it worries me that lines will be so long that i can't stand long enough to vote. (bad knees.)

what a historic day! it's pretty thrilling.

*SQUEEE*

I voted, too! Just got back, about 30 mins ago. I am just ramped up like crazy with excitement right now.

To be a part of this historical day is amazing. I want so badly for Barack to win. Seriously -- he is THE ONE who is going to change EVERYTHING.

YEAH, BABY! :D

*grins* Congratulations. I voted early, somewhere other than my usual polling place. For the first time in my life, more than just old white people were present. It rocked.

I went to bed at 10:30 last night so that I could be at the polls at 6:00 this morning. And dude, I never do that. Casting my vote felt like such an awesome thing, and I actually almost cried!

I voted at too, and I have to say it was a wonderful moment, more wonderful than I thought it would be. Here's to hoping tonight's outcome is a good one!

I am unhappy with the voting here in Mississippi, but I finally was able to actually vote. Hopefully, it will count for something.

And I know that I'm not black, but voting for Obama was a terrific for me too: I am not nor ever will be an old white man.
