Republican New Hampshire primary results thread (polls close @7pm and 8pm ET)

Appears Fiorina is staying in regardless of tonight's results: https://mobile.twitter.com/CarlyFiorina/status/697084563139358720

Well its become obvious if she gets 3 or 4% she is only staying in and for as long as she can to get her name out there. She's a joke.

Who does Fiorina take votes from? a Trump/Carson type or a Kasich/Bush/Christie/Rubio type?

All the CNN interviews I've seen indicate there are a lot of potential Sanders supporters who have switched to supporting Kasich in the end.

Good news for Kasich then, and probably not good news for Saners

"Hmmm... do I want to go with the democratic socialist who is running a campaign solely on a platform of breaking up the banks and reforming Wall Street or the guy who was on the board at Lehman? I guess I'll go with the Lehman guy."

More like "Bernie's going to win NH anyway, so I might as well vote for the guy I like in the more competitive race"

I mentioned it elsewhere, one of the reasons Obama unexpectedly lost in 2008 was because the polls showed him far ahead and so independents who liked both him and John McCain decided to cast their votes in the seemingly more competitive Republican primary.

I will be very interested in seeing the exit poll data for that

I don't even know why Carson even contested NH, he has zero appeal there

Lol a voter on Fox said they walked in planning to vote for Hillary but switched and voted for Rubio

Never underestimate how fickle and heterogeneous people's preferences can be.

Laconia is the bellwether town in NH, it's pretty accurate in determining NH winners on both sides.

Lol a voter on Fox said they walked in planning to vote for Hillary but switched and voted for Rubio

Maybe they're a conservative Democrat who was planning to vote Republican in November and wasn't aware that they could change parties for the primary?

FOX: Winner of NH GOP Primary to get bottom candidates delegates (if they don't get the threshold)

For some reason, CNN has Rick Santorum on its front page montage.

I pick the dashing fellow in the bottom right corner

Looks like a kangaroo in a serape.
