Obma Wins by Wide Margin

After weeks of being told how close this election was, it turned out to be anything but. Needing only 270 electoral college votes, Obama secured 313 to Romney's 225, according to Nate Silver's 538 blog at the New York Times.
However, what about the popular vote? According to the Huffington Post,

As of this writing, Obama had a 58,720,700 (50.1%) to 56,145,950 (48.4%) lead on Mitt Romney for the popular vote.
Romney led the popular vote for most of the night, but that was before the western United States had their polls closed and ballots counted. Population centers in California and other western states are boosting Obama's numbers significantly.

However, according to the Huffington Post the electoral college spread was only 303 to 206. Either way Obama won.
