we are who we've been waiting for.
This morning, I voted for Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
FUCK YEAH. \o/
It's too early to wax poetic, so you'll have to settle for an emphatic expletive, lol. I'm sure I'll have something more worthwhile after I've flooded my insides with coffee.

This was the line to get into our polling place. My mom and I arrived at 6:50am knowing that we'd be in for a long wait. We were let inside promptly at 7:00am...and that's pretty much the last thing to go smoothly, lol. The ballot machines weren't working and the markers were out of ink and they were low on ballot folders and OMFG. All of this, along with the 33 referendum questions on my town's ballot, slowed the process significantly. Still, we were back in the car less than an hour later, so it wasn't all THAT bad.
And I got my sticker!
