Perry Gets Re-elected

 Gov. Rick Perry won a resounding victory over his Democratic challenger, Bill White.  
Mr. White, who retired as the mayor of Houston in January, conceded defeat at 9 p.m. Central time as it became clear that the early returns were against him and that he would not be able to catch up.  Mr. Perry had 55 percent of the vote, Mr. White had 39 percent, and the rest was divided among two other candidates.
