Election Day 2008

Jim, Melanie, and Jasmine stopped by for pizza and to watch the election results. Barack Obama and John McCain were running for President. Obama is from Chicago. We found his house in Hyde Park back in August and got some nice pictures of his home.

Around 11 p.m., I found out that Obama became our new President. They had a big celebration in Grand Park in Chicago with over 100,000 spectators. I heard on the news that he cancelled the fireworks as he didn't think it was right to do that when the economy is not going well. I thought that was a great thing he did.

I was very happy last night to see him win! Way to go Obama!
