Election Night Crushed These Online Records


1. Obama's "Four More Years" Is the Most Re-Tweeted Ever




When Ohio turned blue and news networks called the race for Obama, the president tweeted "four more years" with a picture of him and the first lady hugging on the campaign trail. In less than 24 hours, the tweet was re-tweeted almost 800,000 times. According to the Guinnes World Records, this is already the most shared tweet ever, displacing Justin Bieber's birthday tweet.

Election Day is over, and so is the seemingly neverending presidential campaign. The votes have been cast and counted and Barack Obama was re-elected president. It was the most digital campaign season ever, and Election Day proved it once again, with several social media and online records being broken.

The news networks had a great night too, with Fox News Channel breaking records and even beating CNN.com, who still broke its own four-year records in terms of unique visitors and pageviews.

See all the social media and online records that were broken last night in the slideshow above.
