I decided to hear what people had to say the night before the election. How early one student was planning to wake up to vote, one man who, did see why he should, and a tourist who travel from Belgium to witness history.
I had went to grant park the night before, and also had interviewed these people that night. Every one I had spoke to (i thought I would spare the what could have been 20 min long video) was optimistic, excited and most of calm. Walking back to grant park the night of the rally was almost surreal compared to night before. Everyone was in the streets, cheering and some dancing. To put what each of these individuals had to say to the images of the Nov. 4th was surprising easy too. Its sort of strange how each of their storieswere impressed into the next day.
But what a day. I hope to get up more of my interviews especially from the Young Republics election night party at the Hilton Hotel. It was just such a contrast to what was going on out side the doors and only feet away.
