Okay, so the numbers are in and according to CNN, Barack Obama won 364 Electoral Votes and John McCain won 163 Electoral Votes.

In terms of Popularity, Obama was 53% and McCain was 46%.

It's sad to see that some Propositions were passed such as the ones that forbid Gay people to get married. Sigh, I wish that people would just let Gay people marry. I don't get why we can't change the so-called definition of marriage. Oh well...it will take some more time, I guess. Also, so far the polls in Washington are in favour of Doctor-Assissted suicide. Are you kidding me? Is that really safe? Then why is it termed illegal to commit suicide on your own but it will soon be an option to have a doctor "pull the plug on you"? I'm quite confused.

I'm not quite certain, but CNN.com wrote an article how the Voter Turn-out was around 60%. That seems lower than what people were predicting, so I guess I'll write again when I find out for sure.

I can't believe I've had this blog for 5 years now. Too bad I don't write in it anymore...oh well maybe I'll find more time soon.

HISTORY has been made!

For the first time ever, an African-American has been elected President of the United States of America!

Barack Obama won ~ 349 Electoral Votes and John McCain had ~ 163 Electoral Votes (According to CNN at the time of this post).

Not only that, but the Democrats are back in Power! Maybe soon Canada will shift back towards the Liberal Party...here's hoping!

Also, I'm proud of the Americans for exercising their right to vote. I don't know the number yet, but I'm sure it'll be a VERY high percentage! Too bad only 58% of Canadians (one of the lowest records) came out to vote back in October.
