NH Midnight Voting Tradition Leans Trump – Sununu Buries Feltes in Race for Governor

Every election cycle, the earliest reliable poll results come from northern New Hampshire. These towns have a long tradition of voting in person, right after midnight. Dixville Notch with 5 registered votes is reliably blue, but this year President Trump managed to win the majority in another town.

Millsfield overwhelmingly went Trump 16-5. Between the two communities, Mr. Trump’s 16 votes beat Biden’s 10. So, President Trump’s 16 votes give him over sixty percent of the vote from these two tiny north country towns.

NH Midight voting goes for Trump

But the truly stunning statistic is the New Hampshire governor’s race. In Dixville Notch, Governor Chris Sununu got four of the five votes while Sununu scored 22 in Millsfield.

That’s a spread of 96% to 4%, with only one Biden supporter voting for the Democrat State Senator Feltes.

That’s just embarrassing – when you can’t even get Biden supporters to vote for your Democrat candidate for Governor.

Very Sad.

And we got Feltes out of the State Senate!

Dixville Notch also went for Democrats Shaheen and Kuster with Republican US Senate Candidate Corky Messner and Republican Congressional Challenger Steve Negron, each scoring one.

No, these tiny bergs are hardly bellwethers. But damn, Dan. That just burns.
