Romney vows to end Obama chapter

The former governor of Massachusetts urged his supporters to help him oust Obama.

“Tonight is the beginning of the end of the disappointments of the Obama years and it’s the start of a new and better chapter that we will write together,” 65-year-old Romney told his supporters on Tuesday night in New Hampshire.

Romney consolidated his lead as the Republican Party’s final candidate after a five-state primary sweep. He is still short of the 1,144 delegates needed to be crowned the official nominee at the Republican convention in late August.

With wins in Connecticut, Delaware, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, Romney is expected to challenge Obama in the November White House race.

The US is the only country in the world where the president is not elected by the citizens directly.

In the US presidential election, citizens cast ballots for a slate of members of the Electoral College. These electors in turn elect the president. The final result is based on adding together the number of the votes in every state.
