Election Day

Last night, we all stayed up late watching the election results online and on TV (for Ben that meant a bit after 8pm, for me it meant almost 10pm, and Gail was up until about 1am)...

To show our support for our Presidential candidate, we had a Chicago style pizza with Hawaiian toppings (basically, a deep-dish pizza with ham and pineapple on it)...



Either the pizza or the candidate's well-run campaign worked its magic, but Barack Obama won the presidential election, and will be the next President of the United States of America!



Obama should win 338 electoral college votes to McCain's 163...Democrats also have control of the senate and congress...cnn.com has a nice page showing the results...

He gave a great speech at the end of the night, which you can find here...
