Default Election results

First results are in from Dixville Notch, New Hampshire:







Obama 15


McCain 6




Also, this is the first time this town has voted in favor of a Democrat since Minnesota's own Hubert Humphrey in 1968.

According to what has been ALREADY stated on the morning news here in Oklahoma, McCain will win this state (Once again, This state that is a majority of Democratic voters , voted against their own party's Presidential candidate) and just about any candidate listed on the ballot that has the "L" word ("Liberal") attached to their history will be going down in flames (A Moderate/Conservative Democrat can get elected in Oklahoma EASILY, Current 2nd term Gov.Brad Henry is proof - But a 'liberal' has ZERO chance...Weird, Oklahoma does have one openly gay member of state legislature, but he is a Republican, go figure)

It certainly bodes well since they have long been an R town. I think today is going to be an amazing day.

Luke, Humphrey didnt exactly get blown out by Nixon that election. Yeah he didnt win, but it wasnt exactly Mondale/Reagen in '84.

That town also went for Obama in the Primaries though. . .

So, the record of Republicans winning each presidential election in my homestate in my lifetime continues (Last Democrat who carried Oklahoma - JFK)
