Blitzer: Now, with numbers coming in, we see that there seem to be a lot of votes for somebody who wasn't even on the ballot, Stefany Shaheen. She is the daughter of former governor and sitting Senator Jeanne Shaheen. Stefany was considered a top Democratic candidate for governor this year, but she decided not to run. Apparently, she had such a large following among women (exit polls show practically all Shaheen write-in voters are female) in the state. According to the exit polls, about 65% of them came from CD 2, with the remaining 35% from CD 1. And we can call this race for Sununu, making this the second gubernatorial pickup tonight for the Republicans.
Cooper: This is very interesting, and nobody saw this coming. I wonder if Shaheen will play a spoiler effect in the race, since it is pretty clear that all of them would have otherwise voted for Van Ostern. If Sununu fails to earn a majority, I bet people in the Van Ostern campaign will be upset. It should also be noted that the gubernatorial race was the only statewide race in New Hampshire not to have a major female candidate on the ballot. Perhaps that has something to do with it?

LMAO, this is great.

I have no idea if there's normally a counting bias in Iowa.

There is. Usually, the most Democratic precincts (Eastern Iowa, Des Moines, etc.) come in first, with the Republican areas coming in very late. That's pretty much always been the case.
