President Obama Wins Re-Election
At 11:18 pm EST  last night Ohio put  President Obama over the top to win a second term as President of the United States. In the end, the President had reached over 300 electoral votes to Romney’s 206 after all but Florida’s votes were counted .
In a speech to cheering,  flag waving, and dancing  Chicago supporters and to a watching nation the President said the American people have “picked ourselves up”in the past  and fought back during tough economic times, and added  “The Best is yet to come.”
Challenger Mitt Romney in a gracious concession speech told his supporters to “Pray for President Obama and urged the political winners on both sides of the aisle  to put partisan bickering aside and “reach across the aisle” to tackle the nation’s problems.
President Obama said that he intends to sit down with Governor Romney in the coming weeks.
Here is how we voted by the states:
President  Obama won: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Iowa, Illinois, Maine, Maryland Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,  New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,  Virginia, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin.
Mitt Romney won: Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky,  Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota,  Oklahoma, North Carolina, South Carolina,  South Dakota, Texas, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming.
Flordia results are still not in as of this writing.
President Obama is leading in the popular vote with near 75% of the precincts reporting by 25,000 votes
And Now it’s Up to U.S.
 Today - Tuesday, November 6th is election Day.
For the past few  years both these men have been running for President of the United States.
They have made all their speeches, had all their debates, spoke to the people of the United States about their programs, their promises, their agenda  for the next 4 years. No more can be said by them, we haven’t already heard. Now it’s up to us.
Tommorow we have the power, to change who sit’s in the Whitehouse or who remains. It is our day to be heard. Whatever your political affliation -use this day to be heard.
Vote because hundreds of thousands of men and women who served in our Armed Forces  died defending this country and defending our freedom to vote -their not here to vote -but you are and you should.
Vote for them. Use your right to Vote!
