My family:

Myself - Romney (voted McCain in 2008)
Father - Romney (voted McCain in 2008)
Mother - Obama (voted Obama in 2008)
Stepfather - Obama (voted Obama in 2008)
Stepmother - Romney (voted McCain in 2008)
Sister #1 - Obama (voted Obama in 2008)
Sister #2 - Romney (voted Obama in 2008)
Stepbrother - Romney (NEW VOTER)
Brother in law - Romney (voted McCain in 2008)

So for my family it is:
Romney: 6
Obama: 3

One change from Obama to Romney, and one new Romney vote.

Man, reaganfan, you've got a complicated family.

Myself - Romney (neutral in 2008)
Father - Romney (supported Obama in 2008)
Mother - Romney (supported Obama in 2008)
Brother - Romney (? in 2008, but voted Democrat in 2006, so probably Obama)

Yeah...

Me - Romney (voted McCain in 2008 mostly because pressure from my wife who detested Obama, I was going to vote for Barr to protest McCain's Iraq policy)
Wife - Romney (she did not vote in 2008 because she was not a citizen yet but I think made sure she became a citizen by 2012 election so she can vote against Obama)
Mother - Romeny (she has voted GOP since the 1980s)
Cousin - Obama (he has always been Democrat)
Aunt - Obama (she has been always Democrat)
Uncle - Will not vote (he is mostly pro-Democrat but being someone who is a radical supporter of Taiwan Independence he will not against a PRC-hostile GOP)

It is funny, but since I was able to vote since 1992 I have never voted for the winner of the popular vote.  In 1992 I was for Bush I (lost), 1996 Dole (lost), 2000 Bush II (he lost the popular vote), 2004 Badnarik (I voted Libertarian to protest against the Iraq War), 2008 McCain (lost).

The wife is not a registered voter.  She won't vote.  The boy is 7.  If he could vote, he'd be voting for more TV, a later bedtime, and violent video games.  There's also a hermit crab who lives here named Mister Frederickson.  We bought him at Petsmart about a month ago for my son.  He came with a two-week warranty.  He has outlived his warranty by at least 15 days.  To my knowledge he is fairly apolitical as well.  All of which means that 100% of my immediate family will vote for Mitt Romney.

Obama. My sister's a new vote, so she could help in this critical swing state.

My parents are likely both voting for Romney, and both getting an earful from me about it when Thanksgiving rolls around. :/

No idea, as I don't talk to my family about politics.

In my close family, there are 7 of us, and all will be voting for Romney. I am the only one who didn't vote McCain in 2008, only because I couldn't vote.

My mother's cousin, who lived in NJ (she died 3 years ago) was a democrat, so I guess her husband and her daughters are voting for Obama.

My uncle, who settled in Miami for 6 years, (1994-2000), is a reliable republican, and still is, so I'm sure he'd vote Romney if he could. I think he voted Bush in 2000, but I'm not sure if he could vote. He votes DEM in Brazil, now.

The rest of my family, excluding my maternal grandpa, would be liberal democrats if they lived in the USA.

I am fairly confident that everyone who is planning on voting this year will vote for the Obama/Biden ticket.
