If you know me, you know that I am not one who is deep into politics or political views. However, tonight is an election that is going to make history! Of course, I'm sure it will also be one to make some waves as well.
The kids kept asking before bedtime if the next President was determined yet. They didn't understand that it would take hours for all of the votes to be counted and tallied. I told them that I would wake them up early tomorrow morning so we could sit down and watch the news together.
The race is proving to be very tight! At the current time, the projected number of electoral votes is in favor for Sen. Obama. (McCain is at 135 and Obama is at 206 with 270 needed to win.)
Even my children are divided on who they feel should win. I know that the election has been covered in school with them as well so I shouldn't be surprised at how serious they are taking this election. I'm excited that they are taking a great interest in it though!
I will be up for a while watching this all unfold but I'm pretty certain that the next President of United States has already been decided. As I heard on TV a few minutes ago, "The cake has already been baked." Regardless of the winner, this is an election that is certain to go down in history!
Have a great night!
