With 87 percent of precincts reporting, Trump secured more than 120,000 votes in the Granite State. In 2012, Obama managed just 49,080 total votes in New Hampshire. The gap between the two presidents is likely to increase as more precincts report their totals Wednesday.
It also dwarfs the total of other incumbent presidents: then-President George W. Bush received 53,962 votes in the largely-uncontested GOP primary in New Hampshire in 2004. And in 1996, incumbent President Bill Clinton received 76,797 votes in New Hampshire's primary.

Trump only lost NH in 2016 by less than 3000 votes, so if they are this enthusiastic, I think he carries this state easily this time around.
Holy November landslide Batman!!!!
Dems papering their windows while Trump is headed their way like a Cat 5 superstorm.
Except those 12,000 who voted for Bill Weld. What on Earth. Trump needs to get them in our corner so they don’t vote dem. That’d put a damper on the 2600 votes we need to win NH.
Well, yeah, but everybody hates Trump. Because he’s a dictator.
I suspect the 12k for Weld are both NeverTrump and activists trying to mess with the GOP.
NH is where the Bush Family took control of the GOP and they are still active there.
The fly in the ointment for the Dems: they campaigned for open primaries, which means we get to choose their candidate. I still prefer caucuses or closed primaries, but since they want to do it this way, .........ok.
Trump = 130,000 Votes
Biden = 25,000 Votes
Sanders = 75,000 Votes
Trump truly wins The Republican and Democrat 2020 New Hampshire POTUS primary elections. Case Closed!!!
last time the Democrats were bussing people in to steal NH and Trump knows it.
Most likely, those 12K were Independents that voted in the NH Republican primary.
What we really need to do is get rid of this same day registration in NH. Pick a day in October of the prior year. IF you want to vote, register in the town you actually live in. Show proof that you actually live there.
That would eliminate this BS of Massholes trying to come up here and sway the vote especially in the college towns.
I wonder how many Republican votes went to Bernie in a cross over vote.
Brad Parscal thinks so.
TRUTH is that NONE of the DIMocRATS has a prayer of defeating the POTUS in 2020.
IF the occupants of the CLOWN CAR all withdrew from the DIM’s primary & simply went home they would have just as good of a chance to be the POTUS.

DEPOPULATE ‘rats and rinos from the body politic. We can deal with the rest of the hiding swampscum later.
READY - AIM - VOTE
live - free - republic
You can not do that in NH.
NH is a closed Primary.
The only way you get a choice for either is if you are Undeclared/Independent.
Then when you are done voting you have to change back or you are now one or the other.
There was some guy whining on the local Facebook page about exactly that. He was an Independent four years ago and voted in the Republican primary. Then FORGOT to change back before October of last year. He wanted to vote in the Dem primary this time and could not. All the stupid people on FB were all saying that was not fair, blah, blah, blah.
I like how Bill Weld did relatively well compared to Iowa. Maybe it will cause the neverTrumpers to piss more of their money away!
If President Trump was anything NEAR what they accuse, they'd all be in reeducation camps or just plain disappeared.
Like I say, he’s got to be the worst dictator, ever.
Not even one journalist has been arrested, nor any newspapers shut down. This is not the dictator I voted for!
Very misleading article. They are comparing apples and oranges. Misleading voters is what the Democrats do, we don’t need to do this.
The total votes for the top 5 Democrat candidates was 258,178. Compare that with the votes for Trump. Certainly, there was no real contest on the Republican side, but you can’t cherry pick results from previous elections, among selected candidates, etc. Fake news.
