Dixville Notch, a small town in northern New Hampshire, population 75, registered voters 17, always opens their polling place at midnight on election day. All 17 voters vote and the polls close. Via New Hampshire resident Jay Tea of Wizbang, the results:
Republicans:
McCain: 4
Romney: 2
Giuliani: 1
Everyone else: 0
Democrats:
Obama: 7
Edwards: 2
Richardson:1
Everyone else: 0
Jay thinks Hillary Clinton is "done". While no one knows for sure what will happen with Clinton's candidacy, here in Missouri, "Only two people showed up to a meeting (in Columbia) in support of presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday night." Granted the afternoon saw severe storms and the evening the national championship foot ball game (Columbia is a college town) so it might not be fair to read anything into this, but the two, members of the Boone County for Hillary Clinton Committee, were said to be very disappointed.
As you recall, I have been saying for over a year Clinton would not get the nomination.
On the Republican side the battle will be between MCain,a surprise, and Guiliani for the nomination.
A McCain nomination means Obama is favorite for President. Guiliani nomination it becomes a toss-up.
