FINAL 2008 ELECTORAL MAP

Barack Obama won most of the battleground states Tuesday to boost his electoral vote count to at least 364, with one state -- Missouri -- still too close to call. Obama carried all of the states that John Kerry won in 2004 and then added seven Bush states -- Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Colorado, New Mexico and Indiana. The two states where votes are still being counted -- Missouri and North Carolina were both carried by Bush. Obama's popular vote margin is about 52% to 47% for McCain, the first time a Democrat has topped 50% since 1976.
