New Hampshire Primary Thread (polls close at 6-7 CT)

[DrScholl]

When do we get top line exit polls

I don't think we get those. That hasn't happened since 2000 when the Voter News Service got blamed for the Florida scheming.

[SN2903]

Biden could finish 5th

African American New Hampshire voter for Amy. Made his decision walking into the polling center.

I guess she can appeal to African American voters then. Or at least to a single one, which is better than nothing!

ABC just said Klobuchar's first event turned out 75 people, a few events ago they set up 250 chairs and 750 people came, the next event over 1,000 people showed up. With over $3M in fundraising after that debate, she's a legit contender now.

Patience.  I guarantee you we'll get results a lot faster from NH than from Iowa.

I don't care what happens on the Democratic side tonight. I just want Weld to do well enough to keep his challenge to Trump going and find himself able to annoy the Clementine Cancer and drive even just a small wedge into the GOP to damage them for November. Can I just have that?

Probably not happening, though I do wish there had been some form of a credible challenge to Trump.

I know...

It's so frustrating that Kasich didn't even attempt something like this for all his talk of being concerned about Trump and the direction his party is taking. Really, he is no better than Susan Collins.

It's like anyone who talks about mounting a bid like that ends up not doing it 99% of the time. Understandable, I guess, given how hard running for President is and the all the money/campaigning required, but it would be cool to see someone follow through on their talk.

[SN2903]

Will we get results by 8?

[Green Line]

There's no chance Biden is top 3..  He's in total free fall.  More likely to fail hitting 10% than breaking top 3.

[Lisa's voting Biden]

Polls closed 10 minutes ago. NYT gives Sanders a 68% chance of winning.

Of course I get that, but the talk of challenging Trump is always about how much of a threat he is to the country and how he has corrupted the Republican Party. Words that serious should require serious action in turn.

That's the initial value based solely on the available polling, per Nate Cohn.

[Gass3268]

Sanders in third place in Laconia.

[Tender Branson]

I just woke up. Maybe too early ... nothing reported yet.

Looks like some polling places are still up until 2AM.

I think we should get an exit poll then and 1st numbers.

Not all of the polls.

We don't know that Klobuchar can't appeal to Black voters. Many don't even know who she is. She comes from lesser means roots than other candidates. She has a good record on diversity and no skeletons we know of. If Warren drops out, she'll be the only major minority candidate left counting women as a minority. That can at least win a lot of the Black women potentially, especially given her record. This isn't a Buttigieg situation where Black voters know Buttigieg and don't like him.

[Hindsight was 2020]

Get me some voter data before I piss meself

[Gass3268]

Sanders only up by 4 points in Lebanon on the Connecticut River. Per DDHQ

I agree. It's the "it's important but someone else should do it" mentality that ensures hardly anything happens or gets done.

[Florida Man for Crime]

Laconia results:

131 Buttigieg
116 Klobuchar
