Students gather for 2008 election party in the CAVE

November 06, 2008

During election night several students gathered in the CAVE to follow which presidential candidate would become our 44th president.

ASPLU sponsored the party.

The night proved to come to an early resolution with Senator Barack Obama winning the majority of Electoral College votes and Senator John McCain conceding.

Throughout the night students made and displayed candidate buttons and other political swag.

As each state was called by the news networks, those in attendance would follow along with their own electoral maps, coloring in which states went to Obama and which states went to McCain.
