Obama left the stage 15 minutes ago. It is midnight here but the crowd left wide awake and ready to vote tomorrow. Ann Wyatt
There is a lot of talk about change in the room. In a semi moment of silence a supporter yelled, "don't change yourself." Obama smiled and said "don't you worry." Ann Wyatt


Obama just took the stage. He just said "there's something going on and it started in Iowa." The crowd is going crazy. Ann Wyatt

One side of the room is yelling "fired up" and the other responding with "ready to go." One thing is for sure they are ready for Obama to get here. Just a hunch, but I think they would wait all night long. Ann Wyatt
Two and a half hours after we arrived at Concord High School they finally started letting the crowd in. Even though the crowd waited outside in the cold they came into the gym excited and ready to hear Obama. We have no idea how many people are outside waiting. The crowd is being counted by a fire marshall. One staff member expects around 2000 people. He also said that there will most likely be people who will have to wait outside. Mark
Mark and I are amazed at the number of "young" volunteers that we have seen so far...and we are still waiting in line to be searched and haven't moved around. Ann Wyatt
Mark and I just got into the hallway outside the Concord High School gym. We are watching the crew set up the gym right now. There is already a long line outside the door. Apparently there will be a secret service sweep at 9:15. As of right now the event is supposed to start at 10 p.m. Ann Wyatt
Just leaving Hillary's event at Salem HS. Gr8 turnout. Super informative.

Hillarys response- "oh the remnants of sexism" - lisa & Erin
Mark and I are on our way to Manchester for the last Obama event before voting begins tomorrow. Based on the number of people that have turned out at previous events and the lack of parking on Elm Street...we're both concerned. Ann Wyatt

Mark and I are in route cruising down I-95.
The ten people were holding signs for Obama. Already out campaigning and the sun is just peeking through the clouds. The schedule is packed for all of the candidates today. Ann Wyatt
Mark and I just pulled out of the hotel to find 10 people at an intersection right off Interstate 93 in Salem. We are on our way to Nashua. It's about 7:15 in the morning.
