Early exit polling by the networks has Saddam winning in a landslide while morality is the issue most cited by those polled.

Thanks for this live thread, Dog. And so we shall see if they have the courage to stand up and seize their own liberty.

Iraq's Basra Wary of Violence But Ready to Vote
"I think there will be good security," said Ruya al-Khalib, a 27-year-old woman who plans to vote and expects most of her friends to do the same.

Today we are all Iraqis

Prayer ping.

My prayers go up for this effort! God's protection over those who are going to vote, and for the military personnel who are watching over the voting effort!

Blessings,

Please remember to visit the Prayer vigil for the Iraqi elections thread, and post your prayers for the safety of the troops who are risking their lives for this election.

If you want on/off my prayer ping list, please let me know. All requests happily honored.

[P.O.E.]

Does the outcome depend on the Redskins game?

But seriously, hope all are safe and Iraq is on the way to a functioning democracy, one that will lead the region out of its dysfunction.

Ephesians 6:10-17

Finally, my bretheren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God

Does anyone know who is the most pro-USA yet viable candidate?

And who are the anti-USA forerunners?

Struck up a conversation in the checkout line yesterday...couple had freshly inked fingers so I asked if they'd voted.

This couple drew a crowd sharing what it mean to them to simply vote, their concerns for family in Iraq and lots of praise for our troops and President Bush.

Keep in mind this was in Royal Oak, Michigan where the peace-nicks have stood on Woodward Avenue for almost 2 years protesting the "Unjust War."

It's a shame the MSM has reduced this historic event to a body count.

Prayers to our troops and the Citizens of Iraq.

Godspeed to the Iraqi people as they embark on this new adventure. Many, many wishes for all the best for them. We're so fortunate in this country and take so much for granted.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Thanks for starting this thread. I was hoping there would be one.

"Let freedom reign!"

[Katy_Katarina]

I hope to GOD this goes smoothly......and Iraq is on their way to freedom!

[nicmarlo]

this is almost as exciting as our election night, dog!

May this day be the day that finally shows all Americans what a disgrace Ted Kennedy is to America.

[LadyPilgrim]

This makes me so happy to see the 14 countries of the world back this monumental effort by our Military! What sacrifices have been paid and sadly, are yet to be paid!
Lord bless these, our young soldiers and their families!

Thank You Lord, for the courage of the Iraqi people to come out and cast their votes! Lord Bless our Military for giving them the opportunity!

I know this isn't a prayer thread, but I am over-joyed for the Iraqi people!

[blinachka]

May God Bless and Protect the good voters of Iraq on this most historic day! Let FREEDOM Reign!!

God Bless Our Troops and God Bless America!! : )

I am so happy and excited for the people of Iraq! I pray that all goes well and that they will be able to live in FREEDOM!!

[I'm ALL Right!]

Prayers up for the country of Iraq and her people. God's protection over them. LET FREEDOM RING!

[hole_n_one]

Let's hope that the voting goes smoothly in the province of Floridiastan. Can you just imagine what the scene would look like if a hand recount of the votes were required........

[ohioWfan]

Praying without ceasing for the protection of our troops, the Iraqi troops, and the Iraqi people in the coming hours.
