This is a short diary but I really wanted to share my good news with everybody. As newly minted citizens my family and I have been following the elections very closely. During this process I also discovered dailykos and found my kindred spirits. I have really enjoyed reading all the wonderful diaries here.
Back to my good news...
Luckily as first time voters we all happen to live in states where our votes could really make a big difference. We knew what was at stake. My mother lives in MA and voted for Pres Obama and Warren , my sister and nephew live in NH and both voted for Pres Obama and Maggie Hassan and I live in VA and I voted for Pres Obama and Tim Kaine. Results have been coming in and so far Elizabeth Warren is the new Senator for MA defeating Scott Brown, Maggie Hassan is the only Female Democratic Gov in the US, Tim Kaine is the new VA Senator defeating George Allen and now we're just waiting for the President to get re-elected....I know we're all going to have a good night...what joy
