BBC News with David Auston
Election officials in Florida have confirmed that Barack Obama won the state in Tuesday's US presidential election. The victory by just 1% widens Mr Obama's victory margin over his Republican rival, Mitt Romney. It means Mr Obama won eight out of nine of the crucial swing states. From Washington, here is Zoe Conway.
佛罗里达选举官方称巴拉克•奥巴马赢得周二的美国总统选举。奥巴马以1%的优势领先其共和党对手米特•罗姆尼。这意味着奥巴马赢得9个关键摇摆州中的8个。Zoe Conway在华盛顿报道。

This result will not come as a surprise to either President Obama or governor Romney. It's been assumed that the president would win since late on Tuesday. But it's significant. Nonetheless, it further strengthens President Obama's negotiating position when it comes to doing deals with Republicans in Congress. And because there are so many Latino voters in the state, the result will also reinforce the message the Republicans need to do more to win the Hispanic vote. Exit polls suggest the Florida's Cuban Americans voted for the Democratic party in record numbers.
这个结果无论对总统奥巴马还是州长罗姆尼来说都不算惊喜，自从周二晚些时候，就已认定总统将胜出。但佛罗里达的结果具有重大意义，将增强总统奥巴马在国会与共和党协商时的谈判立场。由于该州的拉丁选民很多，结果将再次说明，共和党要赢得拉美裔选票还需做更多工作。民调显示，佛罗里达州的古巴裔美国人创下纪录地支持民主党。

丹麦政府取消一项有争议的高脂肪食品税，该税为此类中全世界首个，去年为解决肥胖问题而颁布的。原计划对糖收税的计划也遭弃。马克•格雷戈里在哥本哈根报道。

It's no surprise that Denmark's coalition government has killed off the fat tax. The country's chamber of commerce claimed that the unpopular legislation had cost more than 1,000 jobs, had eaten into the company's revenue and had failed to improve the nation's health. One major supermarket chain claimed that customers hit by the rising cost of goods containing saturated fat such as cheese, pizzas and butter has started to shop in northern Germany in order to take advantage of lower prices. The chain warned that it would start building stores across the border if the tax wasn't scrapped.
丹麦联盟政府取消脂肪税并不令人吃惊，该国商务部称这项不受欢迎的法案已经使1000多个岗位失掉，消耗公司税收，却无法改善国民健康。一家大型连锁超市称，在德国北部，许多消费者因成本上涨而减少购买含有饱和脂肪的食物，诸如奶酪、披萨和黄油，但现在趁着价格低廉，他们又开始购买。这家超市警告说，如果不取消这项税收，将准备跨境建设超市。

Saturday's march by serving members of the military as well as veterans, spouses and supportive members of the public was a disciplined affair.
