29. That's amazing! I can't believe the crowd that is there. Those are my old

stomping grounds, and I'm so proud to see so many turned out there. I was talking to my mom tonight, who still lives there, and she said that the gates opened at 5:00 and that the place was full at....5:00.

My dad, who is a "go to bed with the chickens" kind of gentleman, went to bed at 6:30 tonight, because he's resting up for staying up past his bedtime tomorrow, so that he can see Obama elected. They refused to vote early, and have their car packed with all the essentials (walker, stools, umbrellas, etc.) and plan to be at the polls at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

[opihimoimoi]

31. McLimp had 800 today...was a Massive turnout....stunning in size and noise...
