Dedra Alabi (in the black Obama hoodie) is a teacher working for the Obama campaign. “I just moved back home to Texas from California eight weeks ago, but this election is so energizing and historic that I volunteered to work for the Obama campaign. I even got my 14-year-old son involved handing out flyers and what-not. I am happy just to see such an event as the Obama campaign happen in this society at this day and time.” —Steve Satterwhite

Nurse Sandra Guillen, center, with her two daughters, Jocelyn (7) and Kaitlyn (9): “My girls are so excited about this election, much more  excited about it than I have been, so I figured I better be a part of it, too. So I picked them up from daycare, and here we are. This is my first time to vote, actually, and I’m kind of nervous about the outcome of this election. I really haven’t made up my mind who to vote for, but I’ll make up my mind once I’m in there. There are so many factors. I am still undecided.” —Steve Satterwhite
