2008 Election Viewing Party in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Yesterday Democrats Abroad hosted an election viewing party at the FCC in Phnom Penh. A crowd of about 150 watched the election returns on several screen interspersed around the restaurant. As it was a Democrats Abroad function, it was overwhelmingly pro-Obama.
It was a fun and festive occassion with the crowd cheering every time Obama took a state.
