Obama Cast a Vote in Chicago

At 7:36 a.m. this morning, Barack Obama has cast a vote for himself with his two young daughters at his home city of Chicago.

“The journey ends, but voting with my daughters, that was a big deal,” Obama told reporters later.

Afterward, Obama traveled to Indiana for final campaign stop to encourage voters in the Republican-leaning state to support the Democratic candidate from next door. A reporter asked as he was boarding the plane if he was feeling sentimental, and Obama responded: “I’m sure I will tonight. That’s when the polls close.”
