My 86 year old Grandmother just voted for OBAMA in Central PA!!!
Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 01:50 PM by sparosnare
My Dad drove her to the fire station this morning - she doesn't drive anymore. There was a long line and since she can't stand for any length of time, the poll workers allowed her to 'jump' and vote ahead of everyone else.

I love my Grams!!! :bounce: :kick: :hi: :loveya: :applause: :patriot:

2. Altoona.
I grew up there; my entire family is still there and all are voting Obama. I figure that's about 17 votes. :D

3. I grew up in Lancaster County
Lititz, PA for the most part. Congrats on having so many Obama votes in the family. :)

5. I've been through Lititz.
My Dad worked for Ma Bell when I was a kid and we spent time in the Lancaster area.

I really had to work on some of my family members; they all came around though. ;-)

All the time and resources and Palin camping out there, made everyone sick. ;-)
