Cool. ^_^

Did you vote today? :O

I'm not american lol.
But i hope Obama wins ^^

*falls into the thread*

*waves* Hi sei =]

my mom voted for obama P:

Yay~

hm, no updates so far.. But Obama's still winning~

Go Obama! *does dance for him*

Wo-hoo! Go Roachi!


GO OBAMA~

Darn. McCain just won another one. He hasn't caught up, but yeah...

How far is he behind?

Wo-hoo! Obama's could get Ohio~

that's a very significant state. It is SAID that it is very, VERY difficult to win the presidency without that state owo

They're about 60 electoral votes away from each-other

Oh wow.
So how does the voting thing work? Does it go on how many states you can get ??

Each person votes for who they want to be president. If Obama has the most votes in one state, he gets all of the electoral votes for that state. Popular vote counts, but only because it helps determine electoral votes.

Also: the amount of electoral votes a state has depends on its population, which is why California is good for whoever wins it.

No; thats not true. Because Mccain won utah, and obama had popular vote in utah.

Thats it. im moving to iceland.

@Platty - Oh i see ^^ *tis all a lil confusing*
But anyway i was watching the news tonight and am happy Obama won.
My friends and i were all rooting for him, even though we're not Americans xDD

Lols, I was shopping and trying out some dresses today when the sales clerk suddenly shouts, "Obama won the elections!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and started talking about politics all of a sudden. It was kinda funny. =P

Just thought I'd share~ ;]

Well, They're also divided into even smaller regions (the states)

@Lynne: LOL! Did anyone freak out? XD

Not really. xDD;; The loudest people got were when a group of ladies were telling each other loudly that they knew Obama was gonna win. No debates or anything. Everyone was just sharing their opinions and predictions and stuff in a cordial manner. Some were McCain supporters, but they didn't freak out or anything. 8D;;

So, yeah. It was funny. Like, during that time, my mom was trying on a brown summer dress, and then people were comparing it to Obama. LOL. 8D;; Yeah, we Filipinos are weird like that, I guess. =P

Haha! That's kinda funny! XD

I wonder what Obama would think if he knew he was being compared to a dress owo

LOL. xDD;; Now that's an interesting thought to entertain.

Some ladies were all like, "Hey, it's like fate that you walked out of the dressing room in a brown dress right when the sales lady announced that Obama won!" Yeah, and other stuff like that. It was all said in Tagalog, but I just translated it for you. =P My mom was kinda embarrassed too when they were asking her about why she decided to try on the brown dress in the first place, while I was laughing on the inside. 8D;;

Nyuu... seito ish no happy with her state's elections.

Im not happy with obama wining ither.
Not so much that he won; just the manner that people voted for him.

I have no opinion on president who won or lose. xD I'm more upset over our mayor

@roachi: lol usa has the most confusing and most sufficient government system o wo

@Berry - What do you mean the manner in which people voted for him??
He so deserved to win and i say good on America for voting him in. I believe he's gonna make some big changes for the good =]. He kinda reminds me of Martin Luther King in a way Lol.

@Kat - I'd say xD

What do you mean by the manner in which people voted for him?
