I’m still pretty speechless, I broke down when I saw President Obama and Vice President Biden on the stage at the same time for the first time, I realized that we once again will have two men in office that is respected by the WORLD, and we as a nation, will once again claim our worldwide respect out of ideology and not out of fear.

I wonder if I will be able to sleep tonight.

Hope, it is such a wonderful thing.

How Do I Feel?: grateful grateful

We did it.

When Academy Award-winning actor Tim Robbins showed up at his West 14th Street YMCA polling center in Manhattan to vote Tuesday morning, election officials told him that his name was missing from the register.

“I went to vote where I normally vote and I was not listed. I asked for an explanation; they had none,” Robbins told CNN.

He said he has been voting in the same district since 1992. He has not missed one election, and has not changed addresses or political affiliations.

“The poll worker said my name was in the book for the primary two months ago, but missing for the general election,” he told CNN.

Although Robbins was offered the opportunity to fill out a provisional ballot, he was set on using the voting machine instead.

“Refuse provisional ballots — they’re throwing those out, they can throw those out,” he told viewers of “Real Time With Bill Maher” last month.
