No sources support CNN reporting this an CNN itself is not used as a source. Commented on IRC. Waiting for source. --LauraHale (talk) 05:51, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Many of the major media outlets have called the election for Obama." Supported by multiple sources.

Persuaded. Discussed with tommorris as I do not feel it is supported by sources. "Better than expected employment figures last week helped bolster the Democrat and then fate also played a hand when Hurricane Sandy roared in." is one explanation and this suggests other factors helped Obama, not Obama's salesmanship in selling his superiority.

http://news.sky.com/story/1008025/barack-obama-re-elected-as-us-president supports Twitter. Rest of information supported by sources and appears neutral enough. All sources appear to be used with out having unnecessary sources. --LauraHale (talk) 06:12, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
