OBAMA

From Election Day

I like this photo, captured with a friend’s cell phone, because it captures both the rainy ambiance and the uplifting spirit of being downtown last night. I wanted to stay until they called North Carolina, but that may yet be a few days away. The unofficial results, though, show that Obama will get North Carolina’s 15 electoral votes.

He’s my President, and I know he’s Durham’s.

today’s the day

GO VOTE

97,697 voters vote early in Durham

In only one previous election has total voter turnout in Durham broken 90,000, and election day (Tuesday) is still to come. This is what democracy is all about.

See early voter turnout here.

Get out the vote.

    I don’t know… I don’t have an answer, but I think a worthy pursuit in life is to ask questions the answers to which cannot be Googled. It’s often useful just to articulate the problem, and that may be all we can do. — Phillip Barron "Doping scandals spoiling the spirit of sports"
