  4. Where New Hampshire goes, goes the rest of the nation. :rolleyes:
     
  5. Joe has received 10 popular votes.

    That number looks high to me.

    Most likely 8 of the votes are from illegals.

    Where am I going wrong here?

    :cool:

    Midnight Votes in Two New Hampshire Towns Deliver First Election Day Results
    https://time.com/5906766/dixville-notch-new-hampshire-election-2020/

    Two tiny New Hampshire communities that vote for president just after the stroke of midnight on Election Day have cast their ballots, with one of them marking 60 years since the tradition began.

    The results in Dixville Notch, near the Canadian border, were a sweep for former Vice President Joe Biden who won the town’s five votes. In Millsfield, 12 miles (20 kilometers) to the south, President Donald Trump won 16 votes to Biden’s five.

    Normally, there would be a big food spread and a lot of media crammed into a small space to watch the voting, Tom Tillotson, town moderator in Dixville Notch, said last week. But that’s no longer possible because of the coronavirus pandemic. It’s also hard to observe the 60th anniversary of the tradition, which started in November 1960.

    “Sixty years — and unfortunately, we can’t celebrate it,” he said.

    A third community with midnight voting, Hart’s Location, suspended the tradition this election because of coronavirus concerns. It decided to hold voting from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday. The White Mountains town started the early voting in 1948 to accommodate railroad workers who had to be at work before normal voting hours. It eventually stopped in 1964 and brought it back in 1996.

    The communities also vote just after midnight for New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary, which was on Feb. 11. That almost didn’t happen this year in Dixville Notch, when one person moved away, leaving the remaining four residents one short of the minimum needed to handle various election responsibilities. That was fixed when a developer working on renovations of the now-closed Balsams resort, where the voting tradition began, moved in.

    For years, voting was held in a wood-paneled room filled with political memorabilia at the Balsams, which closed in 2011. Some of those items were brought over to a former culinary school on the property, the setting for Tuesday’s vote.

    As noted in the article; Biden got 5 votes in Dixville Notch, Biden got another 5 votes in Millsfield --- for a total of 10 votes.

    Two towns voted at midnight.
