I voted for a winner, finally

ABC News just called the election for President of the United States in Obama’s favor.  And that means that for the first time in my life, I voted for a non-incumbent candidate who won the presidency.

In 2004, I voted for John Kerry, who lost to George W. Bush.

In 2000, I voted for Al Gore, who lost to George W. Bush.

In 1996, I think I voted for Bill Clinton.  He actually won, but was the incumbent.

In 1992, I voted for Ross Perot, who lost to Bill Clinton.

In 1988, the first election in which I could vote, I can’t remember for sure, but I think I voted for the Libertarian candidate, Ron Paul.  And of course he lost to George H.W. Bush.

  1. I feel the same way; it’s weird to finally win 😛 Though I supported George H.W. Bush over Clinton, I also supported Clinton once he was in office. It’s exciting to have my favoured candidated in office.
