Indiana's electors cast their votes for Obama

Today is Electoral College day and I'm damn proud of my state. We even had the highest voter turn out since '68.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana's 11 presidential electors have formally cast their ballots for Barack Obama as the first Democrat to carry the state since 1964.

Presidential electors are gathering in state capitals across the country today for the mostly ceremonial procedure mandated by the Constitution.

The Indiana electors voted this morning in the Indiana House chambers. The ballots all were cast by Democrats who won the right to be electors with Obama's narrow Indiana victory over Republican John McCain last month.

By the way, it looks like the whole thing went off without a hitch.
