Finally I voted!
I am not saying this was my first time voting, but a sigh of relief from this long and very drawn out campaign. As many will say, it is not who you voted for, but the fact that you DID vote. There is no other greater thing about being an American than the ability to voice your opinion on matters that will affect your neighborhood, town, state, nation, and world.
So who did I vote for? I really do not think it matters who I voted for to anyone else. I voted my concious on the items on the ballot. I will have victories and defeat as far as who is elected and proposals that are passed or defeated.
Overall I think this election will change many things, from the course our nation is on to how campaigns are run. We have turned a page and I think even entered a new chapter in our counties history. As I write this, no one knows who is our next president. But whoever it is he has great challenges ahead.

I’m with you there man. I voted for who I wanted - not who I think will win or who is the better of the two evils.
Honestly, I hold no hopes in having a strong country after this election with these two yahoo’s vying for power. But at least I won’t be embarrassed when people ask who I voted for.
