It's official: Obama elected 44th president - White House transition- msnbc.com
Well, not exactly. The votes are not counted until January 6th, 2009 after the new Congress is sworn in, and the ballots are counted that body. However, apparently according to this story, the AP has confirmed that the Electors actually voted for the candidates they pledged to vote for.
I'm really hoping that a 28th Amendment will be added to the Constitution soon, to get rid of this relic of the 18th century.
And by the way: Turnout in presidential elections hits high
61.6 percent of eligible voters cast ballots, the highest rate since 1968
