Election Day

JMMHS had a mock election today. 1100 students out of 1800 voted. Kids dressed in red, white and blue to get into the spirit of things. Mostly I think everyone is just thrilled the whole thing will be over. Madison leans heavily for Democrats, so there will be black and mourning if Romney wins tomorrow. At this point, I know it's too soon to call but the NYTimes claims Obama has it in the bag (90% chance of winning according to polls). All the maps had Romney winning at 7:45pm when I left for my yoga class. Now it looks like Obama has caught up and has gained enough to look like the NYT was right. But I won't be staying up to see it happen officially. I can check the news in the morning while walking Balt and quite honestly will celebrate regardless, knowing the emails and the phone calls will end. Oh, scratch that... I just saw Melissa updated her status on Facebook, it looks like Obama won. There'll only be about 5 kids upset at school tomorrow about that and maybe 2 teachers. So it looks like there's no change afterall.
