Obama, McCain Cruise To Early NH Victory

Yes folks, its a little past one in the morning here on the East Coast and we have two victors from the Granite State. It appears that Barack Obama has crushed his rivals and John McCain has won a decent margin of the votes in.........Dixville Notch, NH. Oh my, sorry to burst your bubble like that. As New Hampshire observers may recall, the small town of Dixville Notch goes to the polling location at midnight on primary day to be the first precinct to cast their votes in the state.

Here are the results:

Democratic Primary: (10 voters)

Republican Primary: (7 voters)

Is this indicative of what is to come for the rest of the day? Would Gallup or SurveyUSA poll seventeen New Hampshirites (sp?) to get an accurate reading for the state? Probably not, but for the political junkies out there, enjoy, taste and savor the first few votes of the year. Of course, Obama will probably take the state easily and as for the Republicans....who knows, their base dislikes them all.
