Pres. Johnson was reelected today. I went down and voted. We made fudge and corn balls. In evening Fern came up to listen to the returns with us. Johnson carried all of New England which hasn't been done by a Democrat for many years. It was a landslide victory for Johnson. Two thirds of the country went Democratic. Joy was here in evening, also a beautiful day.
