Barack Obama has defeated his Republican challenger despite a bitterly contested election that had the U.S. president's supporters fearful he was doomed to a single term. Victory was declared after several gut-wrenching hours that saw Obama and Mitt Romney spend election night much as they did the presidential campaign, in a neck-and-neck horse race. "This happened because of you. Thank you'' Obama tweeted to supporters' as he secured four more years in the White House. The president sealed his victory in Ohio, Iowa, New Hampshire and Colorado, four of the nine battleground states where the two rivals and their allies spent nearly a billion dollars on duelling T-V commercials. Meanwhile, Democrats won two more years of control of the Senate, and Republicans were on track to do likewise in the House. Romney was in Massachusetts on Tuesday night, his long and gruelling bid for the presidency at an unsuccessful end.
