The presidential election

Last Tuesday it was time for the presidential election. It was exciting! Since I came here 3 months ago I could definitely feel the election coming, especially because Colorado was a swing-state which means that it wasn't curtain if Romney or Obama would win the state. In Tv there have been A LOT of commercials and campaigns trying to convince us what is best for America. There have been big posters in the street. Both Mitt Romney, Barack Obama and and Michelle Obama have been in Colorado to speak. And in general people have been talking and discussing about it. Some of the big topics that people usually had very strong opinions about was abortion, gay marriage and Obama Care. It have been discussed many times during lunch!
On my school we had a mock election to see who we would vote for. Most people voted for Mitt Romney because we live in a quite republican area.
It have been very interesting to be in America during an election and I will never forget when we went to see Obama!
