New York, Michigan called for Obama; Texas for McCain

Nov. 4, 2008  

CNN calls Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota and New York for Sen. Barack Obama.  ABC calls Texas for McCain.

CNN also calls Wyoming and North Dakota for McCain.  Fox News calls New Mexico for Obama.

Obama has so far carried predominantly blue states and McCain has taken the red states. Obama, before today, had large leads in all the states called by CNN and Fox News.

McCain had big a lead in Wymoning, however polls showed Obama leading 45%-43% North Dakota before tonight.  Still, only three electoral college votes from that state.

The numbers, added from projections by various media organizations, stands at 175-119 for Obama.
