Trump declared the winner of New Hampshire Republican primary. He is expected to win by 55%

Donald Trump has won the New Hampshire GOP primary, a commanding victory that would make a November rematch with President Joe Biden look more likely than ever.

I am eating Garlic Haley at the moment, that is, Garlic Toast.

[Allegra]

Good one! 😄

[EvilCapitalist]

If I didn’t have to work tomorrow, I’d consider breaking out the scotch in celebration.

[j_guru]

Never had any doubt. We know that you can never believe the polls, but even they could not hide the fact that Trump is the one.

[KittyKares]

Only 20% of the votes are in. Shouldn’t we wait before celebrating?

Nikita couldn’t get enough Democrats to vote for her.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Winning by 55% means he would receive around 70% of the vote. That sounds unlikely.

Actually, in some ways this is more interesting:

Biden wins New Hampshire’s Democratic primary as a write-in candidate

President Joe Biden has won New Hampshire’s Democratic primary as a write-in candidate.

Biden didn’t campaign in the state or have his name placed on the ballot after New Hampshire defied new party rules by holding its primary before South Carolina’s.

Interesting, because I would have expected more Dims not to have wasted their time on this and just gone the Operation Chaos route and voted for Haley.

No...not at all. They have been calling races based on exit polls and precincts reporting quickly for over half a century now with just a few misses. This is not new. All is well.

Well, I’m retired; so I’ll have a snifter even if you don’t.

[j_guru]

yeah, but I am not seeing those 81M votes here.. in fact, he has more than 10K fewer votes than Trump right now. very interesting

[Williams]

I think they mean with 55% but I’m very interested to see.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

OK, as expected. Now we have to hope and pray that Trump does not take it into his head to make Haley his VP nominee.

[Bullish]

The idiot still won’t drop out. She’ll wait until she loses her home state of SC next month. She should quit her campaign, support Trump and save herself a lot of embarrassment. That also might give her a little political capitol going forward.

[KittyKares]

I see. OK, then. Fabulous.

[No name given]

And the sooner she quits the better.

[Williams]

Right now it’s 56 to 44, which is closer than I’d like.

[virgil]

Is SC next? I expect Trump will win that one too. It will be interesting.
