We stayed up last night with the kids for awhile to watch the election returns come in. John printed each of the kids a US map to color in for each of the candidates. Amelia's candidates were pink-Obama and purple- Romney. She got quickly tired of waiting for the actual returns to come in and just colored the map to her liking. William chose orange for Romney and blue for Obama. He was very excited about the results and cheered every time a state was declared, regardless of candidate.
He started out the evening hoping Obama would win (why? I just like him mom) and then flipped to wishing Romney would win (why? Because he ha the most states colored when we turned the TV off.)
He made us promise to tell him the results right away in the morning. I will say his geography knowledge is pretty impressive. He was able to color in most of the states by himself without any help accurately locating them.
