This is Bren Administrative Assistant at Science and Technology Beautiful share from my beautiful sister! My voting experience went rather smoothly. I walked from my house to avoid having parking issues at 5:30am and arrived there around 5:45am. I was number 14 in line before the doors opened at 6:00am .We were informed that there was one booth down before polling began, however by the time the doors were opened all was well. There were four booths and two districts voting. I was done by 6:25am. Hubby and I took note of the weather that eventful morning, that it was beautiful and the dimly lit sky was remarkable. There was something simply surreal about the sky that early morning. The walk to the fire house was refreshing to say the least. Everyone was smiling and talking while sipping on coffee. There were many cultures voting and so many young folks. It was absolutely a wonderful experience. I knew right then in my heart and soul that we were actually claiming VICTORY! GOD made it so. Thank you so much for sharing your 2008 voting experience with us. I am so ready to embrace change with you my sister. Love you much! ~Bren Thursday, November 6th 2008 at 8:27AM

TaNisha Gray Juisee Da Queen Website Administrative Assistant/Homemaker at SeeingGrowth/Self Employed Amen Sis... Victory is ours!!! There was something extra special about the day. I was talking to Emmanuel and brought up the fact that we haven't had weather in the 70's in Nov. in years, it's been cold dang near freezing the past 3-4 years. God is good though it was all a part of the plan, He wanted people to be able to rejoice and enjoy the victory outside comfortably under His roof. Glad you stopped to tell me about your wonderful experience. Love Ya! *smile* Thursday, November 6th 2008 at 9:52AM

ROBINSON IRMA UC, Davis class of 1992 Hi, TaNisha, I worked the poll yesterday and was so glad that we did not have long lines all of the time. It was start and stop. It was a long 16 hour day but the rewards made the day go by fast. Parents brought their children in to see how the voting process went. Star Bucks gave out free coffee to all who had an "I voted" sticker until we ran our then they were given free coffee on the honor system. There were some who looked too young to vote, but here in California you do not have to show an iD. There were vans bringing in those from nursing homes and assistance living. there were some who brought their children with them because they could not speak English. How can one feel tired when hearing "thank you for being here so that I could vote".The only down side was not being able to hear how the votes were going as no politics allowed on site. and here we are three hours behind the close of the polls in Fl and Ohio...but it was a great day to already have faith in Obama being the choice of our American voters when they stepped into that voting booth; and to be a member of the Black community...(smile)and thank you for voting my sister.
