Electoral College: Obama 353, McCain 185


Senate: Democrats pick up eight seats: Virgina, New Hampshire, Colorado, New Mexico, Minnesota, Alaska, Oregon and North Carolina. Republicans pick up none, and hold Kentucky. Georgia goes to a December run-off election as neither Chambliss or Martin breaks 50%.

California: Proposition 8, the Gay marriage ban, fails 52%-48%

State
Governor: Gregoire 51%, Rossi 49%

I-985: No 54% - Yes 46%

I-1000: Yes 55% - No 45%
