Voters Head to the Polls

Written by: DFA Staff on Nov 4, 2008 12:53 PM EST

It is the most wonderful day in the American Politcal System....ELECTION DAY. I know most of our rockstar DFA members, probably voted early, or will vote today. It has been a long election cycle this year, but voters are still excited about this election. Since I voted early, I had a little extra time this morning to read a great article in The New York Times.

In voting booths in every corner of the land, the people were collectively writing the ending to a political saga that has been unfolding for nearly two years, during a tumultuous, uncertain period of American history in which record numbers of people expressed concerns that the country was heading down the wrong track.

...

It was a presidential campaign that shattered all kinds of records, from the number of votes cast during the long, bitterly contested primary and caucus season to the huge amount of money raised and spent on the general election after Mr. Obama withdrew from his pledge to accept public financing of his campaign. And during a campaign season that lasted nearly two years, it sometimes seemed that the road to the White House had more twists and turns than Lombard Street in San Francisco.

 

People are extremely excited about this election. If you have not voted yet, please stop reading this and go out and vote!

H.D. is still #1.  Obama is great but let's remember that you got it all started.  Without your leadership and inspiration today could not have happened.
