Election Day Follow-Up

Yesterday was great fun-- besides classes and my weekly Campus Kitchen shift, I tabled for the Democrats and worked to get out the vote. We brought a group of voters over to the polls and just made sure people knew of the ease and importance of voting, regardless of who they might vote for.

In the evening, my friends and I watched the returns late into the hours of the early morning and were very excited by what we saw (with a couple disappointments, but they were few and far between). It was great to be a part of the process, and it felt good to watch the results come in and feel as if I made even the tiniest difference in my area. All in all, an exciting day that I won't soon forget!
