NEW YORK—Rockefeller Center and Times Square were screaming “Obama” after polls closed Tuesday night as New Yorkers put an end to a long two years of Presidential campaigning.

A U.S. Map on the ice skating rink at Rockefeller Center was colored in blue or red as each State’s results are announced for either candidate.

On the side of 30 Rockefeller Center banners were raised to mark each Electoral vote made toward the 270 needed for either candidate to win the Presidency.
