The polls closed at 7:30 p.m., but some voters were willing to wait.

More than 400 people waited to vote outside Ebenezer United Methodist Church on Rock Quarry Road in Raleigh. The crowd was largely African American and most people came from work.

Under North Carolina law, anyone in line when the polls close can cast a ballot. Some waited two hours to vote.

Every person Dome interviewed was voting Obama for president.

Marcus Turner and his friend Teon Rawles came from work to vote for Obama. Although CNN had announced Obama's win, they said they would wait to vote.

"I'm still waiting in line to vote for Obama, said Michelle Green. "Whatever it takes to make a difference, Lord knows the world needs it."
