Oregon is entirely vote by mail, so I've already sent in my ballot. For those of you who haven't yet voted, please do. I realize that not everyone who reads my site will be supporting the democratic ticket, but I certainly am.
And with that said, I'm nervously optimistic.

Waiting to see how this all unfolds is nerve wracking. Here's hoping the decision is clear, long before I head to bed on Tuesday.
But I digress.
Vote, vote, vote, vote, vote.
We have been following the news closely. Hope your favourite wins!
I'm so antsy I'm sitting on my hands to keep from chewing my nails (which I haven't done since I was 5 - a measure of how nervous I am!) Come on NC, come on America - we can do it!!
I can´t but I´m with you. It´s so important... :)
We voted last Wednesday (3 hours from start to finish). And we voted Obama.
I don't know whether to be hopeful and risk being disappointed, or just resigned to whatever comes. At least it should all be over soon.
I have a bottle of champagne in the fridge. If we win, I will toast to the hope of a better world. If we loose, I'll drink myself into a stupor. :)
Nervously optimistic is the perfect way to describe how I feel, too! I voted this morning and it felt great! But, it's gonna be a LONG day...
I too am nervous about the outcome. I just hope that Obama wins as handily as he won his Senate seat. Even before Alan Keyes was his opponent, he was leading by 23% - I think that he eventually got close to 80% of the votes. Most of us in Illinois really love the guy.
i voted this morning and am also anxiously awaiting the results. i hope that there will be a clear winner by tonight.
also, oregon is vote by mail only? interesting!
I'd love if we could vote early. The line was over an hour long at 7am this morning.
