Where???
Seems to be snowing in the pics.
<>PTry later I guess
Site is overloaded. I can help mirror the video if somebody can get a copy...
NOTE TO ME:
check back for election footage. Last video uploaded was 1/28/05.
No doubt the media has overwhelmingly availed themselves of this opportunity to broadcast pics favourable to the US and has been broadcasting the pics all day.
I just happened to have had my tv tuned to news stations at the wrong moments.
Thanks Clive. They will show up somewhere.

Amazing videos. I watched them both.
Near the end of the 2nd clip I heard that it was about 20 Klicks to the polling site. Do I have that right? That is 12 miles. OMG, 12 miles there and back in addition to the distance from where they live anyhow.
Amazing. I thought that the videos were long. Imagine walking 25 miles plus just to vote!
bump!
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks!
Awesome video's Calpernia ~ many thanks!
