A few stunning figures: *New Hampshire had a record turnout, with 282,000 GOP (13,000 more than Dems) and 20,000 more than its previous high. Yes, Trump turned out new voters.
*Trump won with 94,500 votes. That is 49,000 more than Cruz got in IA
*Trump beat #2 Kasich by a whopping 53,000 votes
*Trump has now received in IA and NH a total vote of 140,000 (vs., say, Cruz of 82,000)
*Trump beat #2 Kasich by 2,000 more than Dinobernie beat Cankles
*after final tally, Trump was awarded an additional delegate, bringing his total to 18, more than double anyone else, and more than Cruz and Rubio combined.
Oh, one more. At a final of 35%, Trump UNDERPOLLED. According to RCP he was just over 31% average in the polls.
So 100% are in now? It was 95% thirty minutes ago...
Thanks for this analysis, LS.
The numbers look great.
Hard to believe that here it is the next morning and there are still 8% of the precincts not reporting.
It's always good to be underestimated. Donald Trump
“*after final tally, Trump was awarded an additional delegate, bringing his total to 18, more than double anyone else, and more than Cruz and Rubio combined.”
Awesome!
But let’s not get complacent. He needs to win in SC still. (sheâs a winner-take-most state, by congressional district).
I want Trump to have a strong delegate lead going into March 1, where if Cruz gets 50% or more in Texas heâll get 155 delegates. That would take work - and prayers - for Trump to overcome.
Trump more than doubled Kasich’s vote count.
Trump tripled Cruz’s vote count.
Bumping the good news on the first real primary not a circus.
Is the delegate count in my tagline correct?
Thanks
Dave
Way to go, Uniparty!
It would take work and prayers for Cruz to take 50% or more in Texas. He was only leading Trump as of yesterday in Texas by 4%.
Does NH have voter ID?
I seem to recall this happening before in NH. These primaries are generally done with volunteers, a lot of whom are elderly. Essentially, some precinct officials just go home for the night and resume in the morning.
Places like New Hampshire and Iowa, and plenty of other small places, had always done things pretty casually. Now there’s a drumbeat demand for instant gratification, and the shrieking of the retard MSM and political junkies.
If Trump wins in SC and NV, that 4 percent will disappear real quick.
To put it into perspective, the 4% lead he has in Texas is more than all the votes cast in New Hampshire. Trump is a big fish in a small pond.
..we are just getting started here...
LOL! That makes semse, and is probably the case.
I just don't know why any district should not be able to count their votes in a few hours' time, maximum.
My conclusions:
1) Hillary is toast; and,
2) NH will be voting Republican come November!

2008 and 2012 elections all favored Dems, last night the Democratic Party lost in NH!
There was a record number of voters in Iowa also. I suspect we’ll see the same in South Carolina as well. It’s not just Trump turning them out.
Wow...those numbers of course aren’t getting a lot of play but juggernaut comes to mind.
