In the wake of all the election excitement, people are starting to analyze exactly how Barack Obama and his campaign won over the majority of the country to become the president elect.

A UNL alum returned to campus to talk with students about the historic election.

Jim Crounse, an advertising consultant for the Obama campaign.

"I'm delighted to be back in my home state to share what I've been doing for the past months."

Crounse talked with students about why it all went the way it did.

"Obama was really able to embody peoples' hopes and dreams, there were big issues, and that was the election."

He wants to talk to students because he says new voters and new technology affected the outcome.

"It was a very modern election, the use of communication tools, social networking sights, helped build rallies."

Obama grabbed 53% of the vote to McCain's 46% and a UNL professor said the young people who helped carry those percentages for Obama are still fired up about the election.

"I think a lot of students have been following closely and their looking for more information any way they can."

That's why Crounse will share and answer questions, while Wagner reminds people this is just the beginning.

"In a lot of ways what we just went through was a dress rehearsal.  Now we've got to see if Obama can get done what he wants to get done."

And of course, that's still to be determined.

There are also some numbers left to count, as of Wednesday, it was still too close to call if Obama took one electoral vote from Nebraska's second district, which includes Omaha.

That would make it the first time Nebraska has ever split its electoral vote.
