San Francisco Votes Obama: Submit Your Photos From Election Night (PHOTOS)

For the second time in four years, San Francisco streets erupted as Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America.

"President Obama did not just win reelection tonight; his victory signalled the irreversible triumph of a new, 21st century America: multicolored, multi-ethnic, global in outlook and moving beyond centuries of racial, sexual, marital and religious tradition," wrote The Huffington Post's Howard Fineman of the results.

San Francisco has long moved beyond racial, sexual, marital and religious tradition, and accordingly, it was time for the majority of our residents to celebrate.

  FILE - In this Oct. 25, 2011 file photo, President Barack Obama speaks at a campaign event in San Francisco. President Barack Obama's "we can't wait" refrain is all about projecting a sense of urgency and bold action heading into his fourth year in office. It turns out recent presidents haven't had much luck with that. The fourth year is often a disappointment, particularly when a president facing re-election is trying coax action out of a Congress in the hands of the other party. The heady optimism of earlier years gets bogged down in partisan bickering, and big initiatives give way to less ambitious steps. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, File)
