Barack Obama has won the US presidential election and will become the nation’s 44th president in January of 2009. CNN is projecting a 333 electoral vote majority for Senator Obama as well as Democratic majorities in the House and Senate.
The Obama campaign had this to say:
You proved that change can happen. You built an unprecedented grassroots organization in all 50 states that brought a record number of people into the political process — many for the first time, many for the first time in a long time.
Our success required unprecedented resources, and our the Democratic National Committee played a major role on the ground efforts that generated record turnout up and down the ticket.
Congratulations to everyone who took the time to participate in this historic election.
