Waiting for Obama in Virginia
LEESBURG,Va--They've come from near and far for this evening's Obama rally, and some supporters say they've already voted.Suad Mohammed cast her absentee ballot in person last Tuesday in Fairfax County. Even then the line was long, she said.
"I asked everyone in line, and 90 percent were for Obama. It was young people," she said.
"I don't want four more years of Bush," said Mohammed, who has a 14-year-old son. Education is most important to her, she said.
Leesburg resident Rod Williams said he'd wait to vote on Election Day. At the Obama event with his two sons, 9 and 11, Williams said he came for "a piece of history."
"It's something that's not transferable in books," Williams said. "It makes it come alive."
