The Big Day

Today was a lot calmer than i thought it would be. Though I herd people saying that "Obama has already won. ." and other people saying its a "frustrating day for McCain voters". I was really happy we had the day off from class to go vote (being that i work everyday). I completely took advantage of that and I got up early and got my vote in. My voting location was at the Sacred Heart Parish (my church).

I got on the Internet last night and looked up the amendments on the 2008 Colorado ballot. Got educated on both arguments of the amendments. This actually only took me an hour at most (which was surprising to me because i expected it to take a few hours). With that, i was only at the parish for maybe 20 minutes.

It felt really good to vote and to also have knowledge on the current issues were facing at a state level. The parish was pretty calm when i went there. Didn't have to wait in line and the officials were very helpful and welcoming.

I am glad my first voting experience was so peaceful and felt rewarding! Looking forward to more elections to come. .
