Barack Obama wins White House Race

After two years of hard fought campaigning, the people have had their say. Barack Obama has been chosen as the next person to take the White House seal with a commanding number of electoral college and popular votes.

Democrat Obama surpassed 270 electoral votes to beat Republican John McCain, going down in history as America's first black president.

The 2008 US Presidential Elections has been the most exciting and difficult run for office yet with problems in America demanding answers that cannot wait till the next person takes over the White House.
