Samir Hassan, 32, who lost his leg in a car bomb blast last year, said as he waited to vote in Baghdad: "I would have crawled here if I had to. I don't want terrorists to kill other Iraqis like they tried to kill me."
This is my favorite quote about the election. It's just one person voting. We know nothing about him except that he was determined to vote.
I think we all forget these are real people on the ground. Every day they have bombs explode and live through threats, and here they are...so determined to vote.
