Finally. I had a difficult time sleeping last night. This morning, I waited until the morning rush was over to vote. There are two precincts at my polling place. My precinct had no line, but the other one had a short wait. Let's hope the optical scanners work. The machine jammed the ballots of the person in front of me.

I started believing in Obama because my name ended up on one of his lists and someone called me to ask for my support. I always thought Barack had what it takes the win the White House. I remember telling the people I work with, who didn't know that much about his candidacy that he was the "real deal." He hasn't let me down yet. I guess color is very much an issue, and here's my take. I've had the honor of working for two outstanding men of color, so I figure Obama's presidency will give me the same kind of satisfaction. Knowing that the president is a man of character and has a steady hand at the wheel, gives me some peace. And in these troubled times, I'm grateful. Now let's count these votes!  ¶ 10:25 AM 1 comments
