Barack Obama becomes President–elect

According to numerous major media outlets (CNN, MSNBC, BBC News) Barack Obama will become the next president of the U.S.

He thus becomes the first African-American president in U.S. history and the first sitting senator since 1960 to win the highest office in the U.S.

As of this post, Obama won at least 333 electoral votes with seven states to be decided.

More on this development tomorrow.
