There are 276,262 registered Republicans in NH as of 12/28/23. The total number of Republican primary voters is reported to be 322,284, a 121% turnout. How was this possible? Assuming an 80% registered Republican turnout, I estimate that 109,000 non-Republicans crossed over on election day to tip the scales!
Jeff Chidester, Mike Rogers, and I had our share of time to fill on radio row – with opinion, commentary, speculation, and observation. Events like the First in the Nation Primary are opportunities to leverage those debates, hopefully with people aspiring to run the country, but do they even know what the nation needs?
With all due respect to the people I’m about to pound like a broken storm door in a hurricane, New Hampshire’s elections are not clean, tight, or reliable—quite the opposite. And I think they know it.
The 603 Alliance and Grok Media gathered their resources and set up shop in the DoubleTree hotel in Manchester for Radio Row, the quadrennial media feeding frenzy in the run-up to Tuesday’s First in the Nation Primary.

It seemed Ronald Reagan’s political career was over in early 1980. Despite Gerald Ford having wrested the 1976 GOP nomination from him, Reagan gave the presidency one last try in 1980 at age 69—which Democrats said was too old. (Irony alert.)
The Write-In Joe Biden Campaign will likely result in a Biden “win.” There isn’t anyone else on the ballot to attract votes away from him, and New Hampshire Democrats are good little socialist doobies as long as Bernie isn’t a choice— so, dear leader or bust. But that’s less interesting than this.
I’m sure it’s difficult to imagine former NJ Governor Chris Christie sneaking up on anyone, but it’s happening. According to a Manhattan Institute poll, he has crept to within 2 points of Ron DeSantis in New Hampshire.
ICYMI – NH Dems “Officially” Lost Their First in the Nation New Hampshire Primary (And It’s Still their Fault). A few days ago, news broke that made it official. The Democrat National Committee called NH Dems out for their systemic racism by taking away their first in the nation primary.
