I voted for Barack Obama. It was the first time in my whole life that I was actually voting for someone who I wanted to win, instead of voting against someone who I did not want to win. I doubt that he can do all the things that he claims that he can do, but I feel at least now there is a chance that things will change for the better. With John McCain it is absolutely obvious that we would have had four more years of the same failed policies put into place by President Bush.
I am physically disabled. Yesterday, I voted with one of those touchscreen voting machines. It was the first time in my life that I was able to vote independently without the help of someone else. It was really nice to be able to have privacy, and not have someone else watching.
