Okay, I just voted
I voted for Joe. I've thought it through and though I was leaning to Hillary, I really needed to do this. It is kind of a closure I guess and now I can move on.

1. Hi Tsegat- I just voted for
the first time in a primary. I'm rather ashamed. Anyways, I saw Joe's name there on the ballot, ran my finger over it and smiled and voted for Hillary.

Here in Mass. I think it's going to be real close. With Ted Kennedy now backing Obama it will have real impact on our state I think. I would rather see Hillary in office then Obama. Purely because of his lack of experience.

I also remember Joe saying not to waste our vote on him and so I thought I should vote for Hillary. Albeit, half-heartedly.

I'm glad you voted for Joe though. I really wanted to also.

6. It did feel good
and after the last month, I need that. I'm really surprised at how many people made their choice at the very last minute. This is a very interesting primary.

5. Yay!!!
I wonder how I would have felt if I saw his name on my ballot?
I'm actually glad that I wasn't confronted with that.

:)

7. I suppose it does make it easier
if that choice isn't there, but it sure did look good to see "Joe Biden" on my ballot, something I know I won't see again. It was a great ride!

11. I don't have a strong preference
so this felt right for me. Meanwhile, any votes for Biden in CA will be split evenly between Obama and Clinton.
