Nevada: A swing state no more?

History is made in Nevada.

President Obama captured re-election last night with the assistance of Nevada's six electoral votes.

Obama won the state by 51 percent of the popular vote, with 47 percent going for Romney. This is the second consecutive year Nevadans have voted blue (Democratic). This swing state has predominately voted red (Republican) since 1912.

It appears Nevada may be starting a new trend for their future.
