Polling stations opened across the eastern United States and parts of
the Midwest as dawn broke. At least 120 million Americans were
expected to vote on giving Obama a second term or replacing him with
Romney.
Their decision will set the country's course for four years on
spending, taxes, healthcare and foreign policy challenges like the
rise of China and Iran's nuclear ambitions.
Polls will begin to close in Indiana and Kentucky at 6 p.m. EST (2300
GMT) on Tuesday, with voting ending across the country over the next
six hours.
The first results, by tradition, were tallied in Dixville Notch and
Hart's Location, New Hampshire, shortly after midnight (1030 IST).
Obama and Romney each received five votes in Dixville Notch. In Hart's
Location, Obama got 23 votes to 9 votes for Romney and two votes for
Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson.
