    Obama wins 2012, can he win 2013?

    By HarryWales  |  Posted November 7, 2012  |  Llanon, United Kingdom
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     iReporter HarryWales says the biggest problem Obama and U.S. Congress face after the election is the so-called 'fiscal cliff' - $7 trillion worth of tax increases and spending cuts over a decade due to take effect in January 2013. "That cliff is coming around the corner, rather like an oncoming juggernaut," he said.
    - sarahbrowngb, CNN iReport producer

    In the United Kingdom, our leaders are elected by congressional district (constituencies) when all the votes are counted. Using those states with a 100% precinct count, Romney has a 2% swing. He needed a 3.5% swing to win. Now comes the real concern over the small matter of a fiscal cliff and a divided government (Dem President and Senate, GOP House)
