The election that the world is watching

Voters in the US states of New Jersey and Virginia are heading to the polls to choose new governors.
The results will be closely watched by Republicans and Democrats who see it as a test of their parties’ standing one year after President Obama was elected. Two Congressional seats are also up for grabs in New York and California. New York is among cities choosing a mayor. While local issues have been paramount in these races, a win could boost party morale ahead of 2010 mid-term ballots.
In fact, the entire world is watching these elections with bated breath!
