WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) and challenger John Kerry (news - web sites) traded big-state victories Tuesday night, then sweated out a tension-packed conclusion to the race between an embattled incumbent and a Democrat who questioned the war the Republican waged in Iraq (news - web sites). It all came down to Ohio.
Votes Electoral Popular
Bush 237 51%
Kerry 199 48%
Bush won Florida, the state that went his way four years ago after a 36-day recount and Supreme Court decision. Kerry hung on to the Democratic prize of Pennsylvania, but had precious few places to pick up electoral votes that went Republican in 2000 — Ohio, Nevada, Colorado and New Hampshire.
"I've given it my all," Bush said after voting in a firehouse at Crawford, Texas, hoping to avoid being the first wartime president bounced from office. |

| The news keeps saying that Ohio has large Dem. counties that have yet to be counted but the numbers arent really changing. I think if Bush wins Ohio he's in for 4 more:D |
