My wife and I just voted for Obama! We had breakfast at Hardees.

It was a paper ballot that was scanned and the paper ballot is kept in case of a recount. They used to use touch screens but people complained because of voter fraud. I took my time marking the box. My wife said she felt happy, to the point of being giddy, because it felt so good to be able to vote, in a history making event, to elect the first African American as President.

8. Yeah! Didn't it feel great?

Turned mine in yesterday and it was the most joyful vote in all my 57 years!

9. Me too (in Virginia)

And there was a long line to vote today at the Courthouse in Arlington, which is probably one of the most Democratic precincts in the state. We don't even have no-excuse absentee voting, so I was surprised by the line.

I voted on paper but it made me nervous...I actually think I like the machines better. I scanned my paper ballot into a machine but there was no way to get confirmation that it went through and was counted properly.
