Arnie wins California election

Film star Arnold Schwarzenegger has won the race for governor of California - ousting the Democratic incumbent Gray Davis.

It is the first time in the state's history that Californians have voted to sack their governor mid-term.

With more than half the votes counted, Mr Schwarzenegger - running on a Republican ticket - has secured almost 50%.

In a victory speech before jubilant supporters, Mr Schwarzenegger thanked the people of California for giving him their trust - and promised not to let them down.
