I have no idea if the counts of the normal ballots, the provisional ballots and the absentee ballots have been finished. But I am very impressed with the voters. Long lines out onto the street even before opening hours is an impressive accomplishment for any democracy nowadays. The enthousiasm people are showing to vote is something that reminds me of the first elections in South Africa where black people were allowed to vote. It is amazing how, despite all the procedural fuckups and the legal bullshit, the voters have succeeded in making this election a shining example for everyone around the world.
