The President and Vice President Are....

CONGRATULATIONS 

Barack Obama and Joe Biden for being re-elected!!!!!!

270 electoral votes are needed to win.

Obama won with 274, Romney got 201.

The result was from Ohio.

Many people thought of giving Obama a second term as he has made progress, especially compared to how it was before he started. Obama's policies were mostly in favor of the middle class and poor, which is a greater portion of the population than that of the richer class that Romney's policies favored. Because of this, more people voted for Obama. Now that he has a second term, the plans he pushed for the past 4 years that have been rejected by the congress can now be implemented for the future in hopes of improvement.

Shocking Swing States Poll Data

It's a tie: 48% - 48%.

This presidential election may be one of the most anticipated yet. 

The data that has been collected has proved over and over again how close this race may be. 

Obama has improved his standing in the past few weeks by regaining support among women in the swing states. The gender gap — that is, the disparity between the way men and women vote — stands at historically high levels after narrowing in the early October. 

Obama now leads among women by 16 points; Romney leads among men by 10.

A year ago, voters in the battlegrounds weren't particularly excited about this presidential race.

In the first Swing States Poll, in October 2011, fewer than half said they were enthusiastic about the election. That number rose only to 51% in late January, during the heat of the battle for the Republican nomination. That's 10 points lower than at that point in 2008, when there were nomination fights in both parties.

Speculations

According to a CNN poll, 51% of American citizens believe that Obama will win the 2012 presidential election and 49% of American citizens believe that Romney will win the election.
