John McCain won the New Hampshire primary twice. A lot of the McCain voters (Democrats, Independents, moderate to liberal Republicans) may be for Kasich this time.

They didn't vote for McCain because of his foreign policy -- which may be one reason why Kasich is set to outpoll Rubio and Christie.

You can check the maps tomorrow. Republicans in Southern New Hampshire are voting against Massachusetts liberalism and tend to be more ideological than those in the central part of the state who tend to be hereditary Republicans of the old sort who are less likely to vote for ideological reasons (there are supposed to be old school libertarian "Don't Tread On Me" Republicans in the far North).

Nope.

Just people wondering who he was and where Dixville Notch is this morning.


Bingo. You just analyzed a good reason for the bump.

Google searches in NH for past 24 hours say:

Trump
Cruz
Kasich
Rubio
Jeb

Maybe a bunch of people are simply wondering who he is since he got votes last night at midnight.

That's exactly what it means--the graphs do not in any way show Kasich's popularity.

He has gone "all in" for NH--all his money, all his time and all his ground crew.

It's do-or-die for Kasich in NH. He may crawl on hands and knees until Ohio.

Reportedly, he personally called each and every voter in Dixville Notch and pressured them for a pledge of support. It was a PR move pure and simple.

"Heard an interview on the radio news with a first time voter. He was torn between Kasich and Bernie. Get this. Wants government under control and....free college."

They'll go to Bern. I don't think Gov. Freeschit has added free College to his Santa bag ... yet.
