2012 Presidential Race

The funniest memes of the week are back, and boy do we have some of the funniest memes that ever meme'd for you. Between 'Intellectual Baby' and a late Halloween meme, this week is bound to get you laughing.

You know how we love our reaction GIFs -- those tiny moving pictures that always seem to best capture how we feel. Here, we have a special lineup of reaction GIFs for the election. No matter if you're an Obama supporter, a fan of Obama, or the rest of the world, we have a reaction GIF here just for you.

Even if you weren't hoping for Obama to win reelection this week, you have to admit that he seems very grateful he did. We can tell because he started crying in front of a bunch of people.

Ever since the election on Tuesday, people have been speculating that Diane Sawyer was maybe at least a *little* bit tipsy while she was working.

If, as some pundits claim, gaffes were responsible for Mitt Romney's failed presidential bid, then this surely won't change that assertion. At some point after losing the election to Barack Obama, Romney's camp accidentally leaked a victory website promoting a win that never happened. It's the 'Dewey Defeats Truman' of the digital age.

After being hit with tons of political memes and autotuned debates, it seems like we'd been waiting forever for Election Day to arrive. There's only so much hilarity we can take, people! But it's already passed us by, and in the case you're just now emerging from a deep slumber, Obama beat out Romney. Although, word has it Morris the Cat fell short by like, 100 votes. Disappointing.

Hey, did you hear there was an election yesterday? It was kind of a big deal, you know, presidents and what not. With Obama being reelected, people were pretty quick to start poking fun of the losers, as well as the ultra-conservatives who said they'd be moving abroad. Oh, and gay marriage and the legalization of marijuana passed in several states. Of course, memes are a great way to do this. Here

For some, it's the "songified" video they've been waiting for this entire presidential race. For others, it's a song they hoped they'd never have to hear. Regardless, here it is -- Mitt Romney's concession speech with the "songified" Auto-tuned treatment.

Maybe not everybody is not happy with the outcome of the presidential election yesterday. In fact, definitely everybody is not happy with it. These tweets are (very entertaining) proof of that. Please stop crying, Victoria Jackson, you'll ruin your mascara and get dehydrated. Enjoy!

Confusion and long lines may have made it difficult to vote during the presidential election yesterday, but that all pales in comparison to a Michigan man who died while voting, was resuscitated, then made sure his ballot was complete before being taken to the hospital. Talk about a dedicated voter!

As you've no doubt heard, Barack Obama was elected to a second presidential term last night. We have a feeling he's feeling like this right now:

Following a win in the state of Ohio, Barack Obama is being projected as the winner of the 2012 presidential race. To celebrate, Obama tweeted the above photo of himself embracing Michelle with the words, "Four more years."

Voting in a presidential election is pretty exciting. And, these days, when we do something exciting we want to tell the world about it through social network sites like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. But while there may be a temptation to take a photo of your completed ballot and post it on the internet with pride, it's not a very good idea. In fact in states like Wisconsin it's a felony to let

Aaaaaaand the drama begins. This video footage was taken by a man trying to cast a vote for Barack Obama in Pennsylvania (an important swing state). We say "trying" because the machine doesn't make it particularly possible to actually vote for Obama -- every time the man tries, his vote is cast for Romney.

Are you voting for Barack today... or Baraka? Display your civic pride and your party allegiance with one of these Outworldly badges. (Thanks to Jade and Reptile, even the Green Party is represented.)
