YIP 02.05.08: 112 VotesI'm right here! Out of the picture :-(   I'd love to know how many homes there are in my precinct...I can't imagine there are very many. But we had 150 people stuffed into a grade school classroom tonight. This photo shows 112 people voting for Barack Obama. Hillary got 37 votes (and one person was undecided). Our precinct was responsible for 11 delegates. Of those, Obama will get 8 and Hillary will get 3. We did our part!
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.
It was pretty cool to see so many people there. There were quite a few other precincts voting in the same school and it seemed like turnout was great. It's going to be a long night...if I didn't have a cold, I'd probably stay up and watch CNN online all night. But I think I'll just wait and see how things look in the morning. Update: Denver county (where I live) voted 70%-30% for Obama and the state is currently at 66%-33% in Obama's favor. If only the rest of the country were as cool as us... :-) Comments

So do you have the option of caucusing for
either party? I assume from what you say that
you're registered as independents? In
Colorado, independents couldn't caucus for
either party.
Done!
Not to answer for Rachel, but in WA if you
are Ind. you can either caucus with Dems or
do the primary things with the GOP. Either
or.
I think the repub's were in different
locations. But yes, they did vote (caucus)
today (Colorado voted for Romney).
Now let's hope Washington can do the same!!!
said a lot of people were there spouse-less,
likely home with the kids. We BROUGHT the
kids! Today I overheard the 2 republicans in
my workgroup chatting and one said she didn't
go because her husband was out of town and
she "couldn't" go because she did
not want to bring her kids (7 and 9) and the
other was complaining about the people who
brought their kids and how distracting it
was. I was kinda sad listening to that...so
kids are a bother? I think it is FANTASTIC
when kids get to see the political process,
even if 90% of what is going on (and how to
explain it) is over their heads - I don't
think you need to drill it in their heads to
make them understand but just to HAVE them
there is great!
I doubt it. My precinct is made up of just a
few dozen blocks. Now if your dad volunteered
to be a precinct delegate (I did!), maybe
I'll run into them at the Denver county
convention on March 8th. :-)
Yeah, my state totally kicked ass! :-)
Finding location...

That was fun.
I am really surprised I did not see more people on our block (or alley). I hope this does not mean they are all REPUBLICANS! Ewwww!
