I'm at my university and registered back in New York, so I did my absentee ballot and voted for Obama a couple weeks ago. Not exactly exciting, but I still voted!^^
|
I voted for the first time today at my former high school. I was in and out with my mother in five minutes, most of which was chatting with a poll worker. My father voted the previous day because he is a poll worker in a different voting district. Also here is a link to streaming returns.
|
First results are coming in....Kentucky has gone to McCain, while New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, a key battle ground state, have gone to Obama. Based on early numbers, it's not looking good for McCain. (Not like we expected anything else XD)
|
As expected, Obama got his state of Illinois. Go us! =]
|
Well, this election is pretty much over. Obama has 174 according to most places and he will get 55 more in California for sure, not to mention all of his other predicted wins. Looks like we know who the next president will be, not that we didn't already.
|
Election Results Barrack Obama has been declared presidential elect by winning 284 electoral votes. |
FINALLY!!!
BARRACK OBAMA! |
YES BARACK OBAMA Is President!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Yep, I'm happy as heck..
OBAMA FOR YOUR MAMA! |
..so I hope Obama will be as good as everyone thinks. Honestly, I've heard alot of religious people saying stuff that scares the crap out of me. although I'm not really the most religious person.. I hope nothing bad like that is true. I hope he'll be a good pesident. ^_^
|
YES! He won! Of course if you've been reading this thread I'm sure you already know that. :x
I KNEW IT! I've known for a month Obama would win. |
woo!!!
Obama is president!!! like the last person said, i'm happy as heck! this is a wonderful day ppl! for 400 years, since the dawn of presidency, the presidents have all been white. but finally, a man has made history as the first African-American president! i almost cried tears of joy when i saw the results. take that McCain! :P |
All I can say is, I sure hope Obama can accomplish most of what he wants to. If he seems to be able to, more power to him. Otherwise it's going to be a long, cold 4 years of more "so!?! is it done yet!? Your amazing plan to fix the US!?!"
|
Obama is president... I hoped for McCain, but oh well... Obama can handle well I suppose...
|
I'm still sort of in disbelief, but now I know that I've have truly witnessed history. For the first time in history, America has elected an African-American president. If Obama can live up to his promises, i'm sure the next four years will be one of the greatest presidencies in this country's history.
|
Aw, McCain sounds so sad.. I get sad when I hear sad people XD
|
obama is number 44, but he is number one with being the 1st african american president. woot woot.
|
Best. Election. Ever.
Obama deserves to be the president of the USA, and to be the first African-American, epic. |
Obama FTWW
I knew he would win |
Great!
Finally it looks like the US will have a decent President. I hope David Palmer Barack Obama can instaurate the countermeasures needed to fix that bureauratic mess. In practical terms I highly doubt so, but when we look at the hardships and the achievements that have marked the history of african-american US Presidents so far, one can only hope. Now let's hope he next President is either a woman, a transgenic, an indocumented immigrant or a mystery writer. Little by little the US will recover its bright, common sense will reach again the brains of the people, and the absurdities of the Monroe Doctrine will be finally left behind. Oh... by the way... I originally rooted for Hillary. Still, right now I'm more than happy.:D |
Guess what McCain did:
MCCAIN CONCEDED THE ELECTION So I guess that means: Obama IS OFFICIALLY The President. God Bless this Country. I'm so damn proud of Virginia. I'm just shocked that Florida was a blue state. 0.o |
Eh, Obama is a fine president. I was leaning to McCain, but Obama does not seem to bad. The only thing I didn't like about him was that he takes all the money from the people who work for it and gives it to people that need to work more, I might be wrong.
|
I hope that Obama can go through with his promises for America, and change the US for the better.
I was sure he would win anyway, though. |
Now, let's wait to see if anyone besides me actually LIKED of feels sorry for McCain!

I'm not expecting much better in an Obama administration, especially when it comes to economics, social programs, and foreign policy. Same would've been for McCain.
