Of nearly 460 people who voted, about 38 percent cast a peanut for Trump. Ben Carson, a pediatric neurosurgeon, came in second with about 24 percent of the peanuts.
Nearly all candidates - even Joe Biden, who has not announced whether he’ll run - found fans at the fair.
Lincoln Chafee, the former U.S. senator and governor of Rhode Island, was “still looking for his first vote,” noted guest announcer Gary Black, the state’s agriculture commissioner. For that matter, so were Republicans Georgia Pataki and Jim Gilmore.
For Democrats, Hillary Clinton ended the day with 64 legumes stacked up in her jar.

I don’t really understand the appeal of Carson. Just don’t...
And Hillary only got 64.
Jill Nolin apparently couldn't bring herself to state what percentage of the total votes that Hillary got (14%).
Switching from percentages to a peanut count of 64 surely might fool low-info voters into thinking that Hillary beat out Trump's 38(%) and Carson's 24(%), right Jill?
He’s the Anti-Obama............................
...jumbo 'green' or raw peanuts from the field, boiled in saltwater.
I’m from South Georgia. Boiled peanuts is all we eat (well, except for cheese grits).;-)
Love boiled peanuts Grits are disgusting.
My brother & I just boiled 3 sacks for our family.
Had to buy them outta Baton Rouge and had them UPS'd to my office.
They aren't a Cajun thing either.
I was actually born 75 miles north of New Orleans, Washington Parish, on the border of Mississippi.
You know that grits is corn, right?
Your Momma should have taught you that you are supposed to excuse yourself when you do something outrageously offensive.
A plate of hominy grits is Southern ice cream.

Ben Carson, a pediatric neurosurgeon, came in second with about 24 percent of the peanuts... even Joe Biden, who has not announced whether he'll run found fans at the fair... Hillary Clinton ended the day with 64 legumes [IOW, just shy of 14 percent] ...
Virginia born & bred. We didn’t do grits.
I was 16 when I first tasted grits. That was when we were visiting a family in Alabama for Thanksgiving. I have never been able to acquire a taste for them.
You don't know what you are missing.;-)
Grits are just hominy corn flavored with various other wonderful foods.
That recipe is nice but really good shrimp and grits has cheddar..
A family Christmas tradition at my house is oyster stew for breakfast.
Oyster stew grits is/are the most wonderful thing/s on the earth.
Make your grits with the leftover oyster stew.
Put in seafood or sausage or bacon or cheese or Virginia ham or all the above.
Grits, despite their lowly name, is/are the most wonderful food on the planet.
Take a chance and discover your roots. And find some rough ground grits. They are the most flavorful.
;-)
There are quite a few ways to prepare them, most of which are delicious. But, instant grits are not worth the time. Think of grits as a country version of polenta.
