posted by on November 4 at 20:00 PM

CNN, everyone calls the election for Obama, with the West coast results.

Loud cheering all over Capitol Hill!


Virginia went for Obama, the first Democrat to carry the state since 1964. Florida was also just called for Obama by the AP.

Landslide victory!

My mom just called me crying, fireworks going off in West Seattle, the world is turned on it's head. Now will someone just tell me what's happening in CA with Prop 8?

Thank goodness that the victory is large enough that we won't be going through weeks of recount challenges and other shenanigans. I mean, they still may happen, but it won't make a difference.

Woo-hoo! We did our part in Ohio this time! I salute him and his brilliant campaign team and the million + americans who made it possible through their hard work and hard-earned cash.

Wow, I can't believe this. I feel proud and choked up in way I never have before. I'm 44 years old, and no election has ever come close to affecting me like this.

I'm jumping up and down, celebrating with you Americans. I believe all the world is overloaded with joy.

Happy tears and big smiles on my face.

I'm actually shedding happy tears. Now I hope the happy tears continue as the results for Prop 8 come in. Keeping the faith here in California. Congratulations to President Obama!
