Obama just won the Dixville Notch vote in NH. They have a tradition of opening their poll at Midnight for the town’s residents. 21 people cast their vote, representing 100% voter turnout, and 15 went to Obama, vs. 6 to McCain.
Oh, let this be a harbinger of the rest of the contests!!
A nearby town named Hart’s Location also saw a big win for Obama, with 17 votes cast for Obama, 10 for McCain, and 2 for Ron Paul.
Nader was on the ballot in both towns, but took no votes.
In Dixville Notch, the last time a Democrat won was 1968, the same year in which Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King were killed.
How fitting it is that, 40 years later, just as Bobby had predicted, that an African American man is poised to make history as our new President!
