Election day was filled with genuine emotions on Twitter, following months of sharp exchanges, too many jokes to count and memes. So many memes. Tuesday had its tense moments and also bursts of joy and disappointment.

We've collected some of the best to highlight the roller coaster that was this Election Day.

When the election was finally called for Obama, Twitter blew up.

Twitter Government -- Peak to 327k TPM following @BarackObama's re-election was by far the most-tweeted moment of #Election2012.

Adam Britten -- Amazing that @BarackObama is basically acknowledging he won on Twitter before anywhere else. #election2012

John Boehner ?-- Thank you to Mitt, Paul, & their families for carrying banner of our party & principles w/strength, grace, & courage

Gov. Mike Huckabee ?-- Tonight's results only remind me that our country has slipped into a deeper state of dependence on govt

Donald J. Trump -- He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!

Tyler Oakley -- I'm sorry, @MittRomney, you're no longer in the running to become America's Next Top President.

Big Bird -- Mitt Romney still deciding which Mitt Romney will deliver Mitt Romney's concession speech. #Election2012

Lady Gaga -- AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHRHRGRGRGRRRGURBHJB EORWPSOJWPJORGWOIRGWSGODEWPGOHEPW09GJEDPOKSD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0924QU8T63095JRGHWPE09UJ0PWHRGW

Of course, Obama wasn't the only winner of the night. Tammy Baldwin was elected the first openly gay senator and Elizabeth Warren won her Senate race in Massachusetts. Maine and Maryland voted to legalize gay marriage, and Colorado and Washington voted to legalize recreational marijuana.

Jonny Dorsey -- Tammy Baldwin! In 2008 my friends and I cried after Prop 8 passed. Today the USA has an LGBT Senator. Change coming.

Tammy Baldwin -- I didn't run to make history. I ran to make a difference. #WIsen #Tammy2012

Erica Williams -- Tammy Baldwin, Elizabeth Warren and now Claire McCaskill...Looks like we're filling up our #binderfullofwomen tonight.

Ezra Klein -- I remember when Elizabeth Warren was just some obscure academic with some interesting ideas on consumer regulation.

Streeter Seidell -- Legal weed, gay marriage and a black president - take THAT, grandma!

Brent Black -- So a bunch of states have voted for gay marriage and legal marijuana. America is slowly learning how to party.

nascarcasm -- Colorado voted to legalize marijuana, because apparently being a mile high already just isn't quite high enough. #election2012

Earlier in the day, people shared photos of I Voted stickers, but also voiced concerns about long lines and faulty machines.
