Chicago's Grant Park Readies for Tonight

NEW YORK (WCBS 880)  -- As Senator Obama casts his ballot in his hometown of Chicago, his supporters there can barely contain themselves. They can't wait for tonight's election night even in Grant Park.

 
 

 

WCBS Reporter Peter Haskell is in Chicago and checks out Grant Park.

More than 65,000 tickets have been distributed but thousands more are expectd to watch on giant video screens in another section of the park.

Dierdre Fantasy tells Haskell she will be there and thinks this party will be like none other.

"I think it's going to be unbelievable. I think Grant Park will just levitate right off the ground," said Fantasy.

His supporters insist Obama is the change this country needs.
