Placed within an elegant ballroom decorated abundantly with blue and white balloons, a quiet evening began picking up for local Democrats at the Mariott hotel in Islandia, NY.

Election propaganda adorned the walls of the large room as eager guests and politicians watched two large projection screens with the latest updates.

Although the crowd started the night very quiet and calm, the number of guests picked up as the night moved on, and with it enthusiasm picked up as well.

CNN is projecting two-term Republican incumbent Jeff Sessions of Alabama and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to retain their Senate seats.

The results from Stony Brook University's Polling Place in the Student Activities Center is in!

Out of 2324 votes:

Barack Obama - 1778
John McCain - 218
Third party candidates - 328

North Carolina, Florida, Virginia and Indiana are too close to call. The four states hold the key to an Obama landslide. McCain wins seem improbable but if he sweeps the states then the race will tighten up considerably.

NBC News is projecting New Mexico for Obama.

New Mexico was a state that narrowly voted for George W. Bush in 2004. It was a battleground state in this election as well, with polls consistently showing Obama ahead in the state in the weeks leading up the election.
