What names of the people voted for Obama?

Since millions of people voted for the president, it would be impossible to give you their names; besides, voting is confidential, so we cannot say which people voted for which candidates unless those people publicly said so in the media. (This sometimes happens with celebrities or famous people, who will say they voted for a certain candidate; General Colin Powell voted for President Obama, for example, and said so.) While a majority of the people who voted for Mr. Obama were Democrats (members of the Democratic party), there were also some moderate and liberal Republicans (like Colin Powell) who voted for him too.
