Obama VS Mccain site traffic comparison

The election is over, and we all already knew that Obama will be the next US next president this coming January. I know that the whole world cheers by the win, and personally i hope ‘the change’ that he promises will get materialized.

While the actual election result shows that Obama receive huge majority on the way to his win, the traffic gained by Obama’s website has provided an initial sign on who will succeed. As you can see below the traffics are significantly higher compared to what McCain’s website.

As the internet era grows tremendously in recent year, perhaps we can start looking at any political related website to guess, who is the winner on our very own general election, due in the next 4 years.
