Best political feeling ever: in my 90 year old house in my 150 year old neighborhood watching my city, this state and this country elect Obama.
80% of eligible people in Richmond voted, people. EIGHTY.
I don't care who you voted for (but I'll lay odds if you're on my friends list and in the city): that thrills me with hope.
The rest of y'all, non locals, whatever your political persuasion: you're pretty awesome too. I've loved reading your words through this.
Now. Californians? What happened with Prop 8? Please tell me no.
[ETA: John McCain, you, too, are awesome and beautiful. Thank you.]
