Obama Kekal Presiden AS

WASHINGTON: Presiden Amerika Syarikat (AS), Barack Obama menang dalam pilihan raya jawatan itu sekali gus mencatat sejarah sekali lagi dengan menafikan wujudnya pemulihan ekonomi lembap dan kadar pengangguran yang tinggi untuk menundukkan pencabar Republikan, Mitt Romney.

President Barack Obama won re-election Tuesday night despite a fierce challenge from Republican Mitt Romney, prevailing in the face of a weak economy and high unemployment that encumbered his first term and crimped the middle class dreams of millions.

The president sealed his victory in Ohio, Iowa, New Hampshire and Colorado, four of the nine battleground states where the two rivals and their allies spent nearly $1 billion on dueling television commercials.
