November 7, 201214 yr I'm watching the live updates online. Obama won my state, Pennsylvania! Yay! :DObama's in quite the lead with electoral votes- 244 versus 178! Most of the swing states still to go, and Florida is SO TIGHT, OMG.
November 7, 201214 yr I think Obama will take this based on the lead right now :D So all I got to say is WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :D :D :D
November 7, 201214 yr *DOES HAPPY DANCE* I am sooooo happy he got another four years, this is well deserved :D
November 7, 201214 yr YAY!!! It's finally called! Congrats everyone *giant group hug* *giant group hug as well*Yay! I am SO HAPPY for you guys down there! A Romney-lead US is the stuff of nightmares, and NO ONE deserves that. So YAY! I am so happy for all of you. :D Tonight is definitely a night for celebrating!
November 7, 201214 yr Awwwww Rebecca I totally agree, I had been scared there for a while but I knew that at the end he would win out over Romney and conquer! :D :D :D I can't stop smiling :D
November 7, 201214 yr if Romney get elected, then this pet: http://www.neopets.c...html?pet=romney would be deleted for having an inappropriate petname :P lol
November 7, 201214 yr I was away, watching the news and saw that Obama won!!! I am so happy! Also, Kathleen Kane won attorney general. She is the first woman attorney general!
November 7, 201214 yr I am SO, SO happy and ridiculously thankful, WOOOOOOO! Yay, thank you everyone for the support, and group hugs all around!
November 7, 201214 yr Big sigh of relief over here! :laughingsmiley: I can't stop smiling. Thank you everyone, all of you are so great. Especially those of you who live in different countries, thank you for your support in all of this. Really, if Romney would have won I would have been scared to death of my own country. I'm so proud.
November 7, 201214 yr Xandria, I have to agree I definitely would have moved out of the country if Romney were elected, I do not support him in the slightest :D
November 7, 201214 yr Romney would've fixed the economy, but it aint worth it with all the other changes he would've made. Glad Obama won, but I feel like hes the lesser of two evils. He wont help the economy, but atleast we still got our rights, eh? A little disapointed my state, AZ, went with Romney,
November 7, 201214 yr So relieved that Obama got reelected! I really couldn't have imagined what this country would have been like had Romney been elected. Thankful it's over and we have another four years with Obama and our rights. ;)
November 7, 201214 yr I agree rebecca! I'm super enthused that he is reelected it's just totally messed up that romney is being a stubborn butthead about it and not wanting to give up o.O
November 7, 201214 yr I agree rebecca! I'm super enthused that he is reelected it's just totally messed up that romney is being a stubborn butthead about it and not wanting to give up o.O LOL, I know! Actually, the site I'm looking at right now had his electoral votes dropping while Obama's are still rising. Honestly, I didn't know it was possible for electoral votes to drop like that? But if that is actually what's happening/if it's possible, you would think him seeing that would make him realize that it's over for him. :P
November 7, 201214 yr isn't Romney leading the popular votes? I wonder how irritated he is right now ...
November 7, 201214 yr I just want to remind everyone that the election isn't *just* about the presidential election. I am ECSTATIC right now because of the votes for marriage equality. Did you guys hear that Mitt Romney wrote a victory speech but not a concession speech? This is absolutely true--look it up. Quote from me in the meantime: Mitt Romney never wrote a concession speech and will now have to write a paper with bare minutes to spare. Perhaps now he'll sympathize more with college students tonight. Aaaand an excellent quote from a friend of mine: Thousands of people without power in the northeast--- including Gov. Mitt Romney. isn't Romney leading the popular votes? I wonder how irritated he is right now ... This is true, but I'm certain it won't last. Remember that it's very close, and that the largely Democratic states on the West Coast are the ones with the fewest precincts reporting right now.
November 7, 201214 yr isn't Romney leading the popular votes? I wonder how irritated he is right now ... Yup, he was earlier at least. Probably quite on the irritated side. :P I just want to remind everyone that the election isn't *just* about the presidential election. I am ECSTATIC right now because of the votes for marriage equality. I am, too! Although that doesn't directly affect me, I have a lot of close friends that are directly affected by it, and in that sense it does affect me because I want them to be able to marry who they love, too.
November 7, 201214 yr I WANT TO GO HOME! Maine passed marriage equality! <3 I'm so excited that so many more states are recognizing these rights.
November 7, 201214 yr Being a Canadian I am absolutely thrilled about the outcome tonight. Though I would have liked Obama to have a few more states, but an overall majority is all that counts. :D
November 7, 201214 yr LOL, I know! Actually, the site I'm looking at right now had his electoral votes dropping while Obama's are still rising. Honestly, I didn't know it was possible for electoral votes to drop like that? But if that is actually what's happening/if it's possible, you would think him seeing that would make him realize that it's over for him. :P I didn't either but I am not surprised and I'm wishing he would just take it with grace like my mom told me. I don't think this is keeping his reputation in tact with the response he is having to Obama's whoop on his butt hahaha. :P isn't Romney leading the popular votes? I wonder how irritated he is right now ... I would think he is steaming mad and irritated because his so-called plan didn't work and mad that he made a butt of himself :P I just want to remind everyone that the election isn't *just* about the presidential election. I am ECSTATIC right now because of the votes for marriage equality. Did you guys hear that Mitt Romney wrote a victory speech but not a concession speech? This is absolutely true--look it up. I'm not surprised he was probably figuring he would win the election like the pompous man that he is and so now he has to make up for the concession speech he didn't plan for in no time flat :P
November 7, 201214 yr Pop polls weren't even close to being finished when Obama won the 270 votes. It will probably take a few days before it will be counted, but as of now, Obama has surpassed Romney in the popular polls as well. It is close, a few hundred thousand, but a head by a bit.
November 7, 201214 yr Linds, I agree with you they still have to count but I don't think it will make that huge of a difference, seeing as Obama is way up at like 100 electoral votes ahead. But I'm just happy Romney's concession speech wasn't totally pompous considering he decided he wouldn't write one until about oh 15 minutes ago or so.
November 7, 201214 yr Marijuana was made absolutley legal for recreational use in Washington. Definitley a first for us. & Maryland and Maine has approved gay marriage!!! Today is a terrific day for America. I hope the rest of the states start to follow suite. EDIT: Oh, and Obama is now in the lead with the popular vote as well!
