Here's a LIVE THREAD for the NH Primary results this evening.

We will know soon enough and we can keep track it right here.

How quick will they call it? I expect between 7:30 and 8 PM the race will be called in NH tonight.

It has all the live rallies most of us have sat through. There must be 30,000 posts since the first of the year.

If this is not translating to votes, then what?

I think Trump will go over 40%

Does Texas have 38 electoral votes as opposed to New Hamphsire with 4 electoral votes?

I believe so. Funny how the one state is majority non-white but solidly Republican while the other is overwhelmingly white and purple. Go figure.

Trump was actually leading in Texas until recently. Now Cruz is leading by 5%.

Do you mean delegates, in the primaries or electoral votes in the general?

Here are the ones that have that rule:

Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Oklahoma, Texas, and Vermont

It’s an outside chance, but Cruz could do it in is Texas.

I can see Trump pulling over 50% in some of the others...depending on what happens between now and then.

You may see Christi, Fiorinia, Kasich and carson all drop out between now and then.

Since many who abuse end up dead, Rush got off easy by just going deaf. Still, quite a high price to pay.

From

Once again, Ted Cruz has an under-appreciated strength in New Hampshire

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3394923/posts

They might not make national headlines, but local endorsements in presidential primaries matter. According to the influential book “The Party Decides,” such endorsements reveal party elites trying to come to a decision about which candidate they should mutually support. They are leading indicators of vote - and delegate - outcomes. In many ways, they are better at predicting how the race will turn out than opinion polls.

As we’ll explain below, in New Hampshire, Ted Cruz has built up a commanding lead of these endorsements - especially compared with Marco Rubio and Donald Trump, which indicates a reservoir of strength that current polling might be missing.

This echoes our post from a week ago (before the caucus), in which we argued that Ted Cruz’s underappreciated strength in Iowa endorsements - he led the field with more than a quarter of the sitting legislators’ endorsements - could help him outperform the polling average. And indeed, he did.

On the other hand, there are many endorsements for candidates like Carly Fiorina and Chris Christie. The message is that of a Republican party in New Hampshire deeply divided between a more moderate wing supporting Fiorina and Christie, and a more libertarian wing that now is owned by Cruz (and was for Paul, when he was running).

You're welcome Jeff! Thanks for the thread. Going to be an interesting primary season. . and then the convention. Hope it's not a brokered convention. My worry wart titre is way up there about convention shenanigans. First things first though, . . one primary at a time.

People in New Hampshire, Get Out the Vote! There's still time!

I also know Cruz is the only one fighting for the 25% of NH electorate that is conservative.

There was once a day where that actually meant something here at FR.

Just saw this on Fox:

Trump nor Cruz will not be allowed to have the party’s ticket.

“These polls don’t matter.”

So says former New Hampshire Republican governor Steve Merrill, a longtime and highly influential Republican power broker in the Granite State who during an interview with Neil Cavuto on the Fox Business network this morning declared all current polling in New Hampshire to be null and void, and the likelihood of anti-establishment GOP front-runners Donald Trump or Ted Cruz winning New Hampshire as unlikely.

And that’s not all he said…

This morning Governor Merrill was adamant that New Hampshire primary voters would choose an establishment candidate to represent them in the GOP nomination process. He specifically pointed to the campaigns of Jeb Bush and John Kasich as those he approved of.

He also appeared dismissive of the possibility that either Donald Trump or Ted Cruz would win New Hampshire.

Then he dropped a bombshell that clearly had Fox Business host Neil Cavuto a bit stunned.

Merrill indicated it would be a brokered Republican convention regardless, and from there a proper candidate would be nominated.

East Vermont, 2nd Cong. district, is our problem child with all of the Left Wing Colleges.

We have massive voter fraud and a corrupt Judiciary, if we can get a Rep Gov that will end.

Thanx for this...
Maybe NOW Fox and the rest will tear up the suppress Cruz newz memo from the GOPe and finally give him some credit...
And if he keeps winning even though he’s being accused of cheating...
I hope he cheats (like Obozo) all the way to the White House...yes I do.

Don't blame FR I think it still means something if the candidate is genuine. Can't say that for Cruz. Some believe that, fine but their beliefs don't make the rest of us not conservatives.

That’s why eventually it has to be a Trump/Cruz ticket, in that order. Together they have unbeatable power. Trump can win, but needs Cruz’s guidance and stability. Cruz can win the nomination, but I don’t know if he can win the general-—but even if he does, I’m convinced that he lacks Trump’s ability to go to the people to force change. We need ‘em both. Unfortunately, we need Cruz to lose several early primaries to make that happen.

Yes, I see Cruz is fighting with anonymous, money laundered campaign donations. Nice to see a Principled Conservative (TM) like that fighting for us.
