Official election results boosted Barack Obama’s margin of victory to 54 votes against John McCain in Buchanan County.
The final tally certified by Buchanan County Clerk Pat Conway’s office puts the Democrat Presidential ticket at 19,164, with the Republicans at 19,110 — a vote of 48.81 percent to 48.68. Total turnout was 39,479 out of 51,254 registered voters, or 77.03 percent.
It is nice to know that despite this, statewide Missourians still went the right direction.
