Election Day Polling 2008

I spent yesterday into early this morning photographing the chaos of yesterday's historical election and today's emotional celebration. I visited several polling places with lines hours long full of dedicated, determined voters willing to wait to cast their ballots. I have never witnessed such unity in my life. I am proud of America for not only voting, but coming together and making big decisions.
