NPR: Missouri For McCain

Missouri For McCain

More than two weeks after election day, NPR projects a victory for John McCain in the state of Missouri. The Show-Me State has 11 electoral votes, bringing the final projected Electoral College tally to 365 for Obama and 173 for McCain.

This election marks only the second time since 1900 that Missourians have not supported the overall winner of the presidential contest. The state's voters also supported Adlai Stevenson over incumbent Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956.
