Election Night Recap

"Democracy Now!"

“Democracy Now!” serves up a concise, 10-minute roundup of key election and ballot measure results from Tuesday night. Obama’s winning a second term, Elizabeth Warren’s election to the Senate, marriage equality in four states, the legalization of pot for recreational use in two, and the overcoming of efforts to suppress swing-state voters were among the major victories for liberals.
