It's Barack!
I am sure all newspapers in the US have a similar front page as the Miami Herald's this morning: the US has a new President starting January 20th, 2009. The insert shows the US electoral map. The tally is not completely finalized but it scores electoral vote 338 - 163 in favor of the "Blue" team: Barack Obama - Joe Biden won big.
The US presidential election system keeps track of two scores: the popular vote (52% for "Blue" and 47% for "Red";) and the electoral vote which is the one that counts (338 for "Blue" and 163 for "Red".) The magic electoral number is 270 for a win. The result was known at 11:00PM US Eastern Daylight time last night, November 04, 2008.
