Barack Obama has captured the battleground states of Ohio and Pennsylvania, giving him a nearly insurmountable advantage over John McCain in the race to serve as the 44th president of the United States. With the polls now closed in more than half the country, the Democratic nominee's victory in Ohio was his first of the night in previously red territory, giving him 20 electoral votes President Bush won in 2004. And Obama's wins in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire also significantly narrowed any potential path to victory for McCain.
