The days approaching election day are always stressful with candidates getting in last minute campaigns, friends and families trying to urge people to take their side and of course, updating statuses about whom one is going to vote for on social media networks.

Either way, when the results are in, the political dynamic of the people are impacted in some way. Below are highlights of who won the elections.
