Miami Lakes Branch Public library was empty this morning with only a few people campaigning and even fewer waiting in line to vote. Among those campaigning was Henry Alberto, a gay, 25-year-old actor and Miami native. Alberto had been campaigning to vote no on Amendment 2, the measure defining marriage and limiting civil unions regardless of gender, since early Sunday.
But he was upset he couldn't take back his decision to vote for Obama. With Obama supporters encouraging early voting, Alberto felt he fell for Obama-mania. He worries about Obama's credibility and the fact that no one really knows what to expect if he is elected.
"Obama is sketchy. He never once has denied being a socialist," said Alberto.
Alberto hasn't always received positive responses as he worked against Amendment 2. Those who favored the measure often walked by and yelled obscenities.
