Well that can't be right, since Dixville always goes Pubbie, and we have had some GOP presidents I think prior to the incumbent.
Oh, you are right; it's late and I misread it: I just skimmed the last line of this paragraph!
In general elections, Dixville Notch went solidly for losers Richard Nixon in 1960, Barry Goldwater in '64 and, Hubert Humphrey in '68, then finally picked a winner with Nixon in '72, only to see him quit at midterm. In 1976, their choice was Michigan's Gerald Ford, who lost to Jimmy Carter. In 1980 and '84, they liked Reagan, as did most of the country. George H.W. Bush was their pick in 1988, but Dixville Notch didn't back another winner until George W. Bush in 2000.
