1. Also, how are they voting? Paper ballots? I have no idea. nt

4. Last year it was paper ballots and they wrote the results on a dri-erase board.

23. Paper ballots. They vote at the only place in the notch, a grand

gracious old hotel called the Balsalms. There's nothing else around for miles, and the notch and the hotel are spectacular; magical even.

My son's there tonight- I expect to hear all about it tomorrow.

2. It'll be on Cspan. Its like 8 votes. Clark won last year.

Dixville Notch or something like that.

[Adelante]

7. Clark won 8 votes and Kerry won three

If I recall.

[Joe the Revelator]

[Adelante]

Because this little town's votes aren't predictive, it's more a curiosity than anything else. I won't be staying up to see the results.

[K Gardner]

14. Thanks !

19. If I'm not mistaken, Wes Clark won the Notch in 2004.

I think he had 4 votes.

[mcscajun]

21. You're not mistaken. Clark did win the Notch in 2004.

...the result in Dixville Notch is hardly a reliable bellwether for statewide results. The town’s Democrats picked Wesley Clark in 2004, Bill Bradley in 2000, and Bill Clinton in 1992. (John Kerry, Al Gore, and Paul Tsongas were the actual statewide winners those years.) On the Republican side, Dixville voters backed George Bush in 2000 (actual winner: John McCain) and Bob Dole in 1996 (actual winner: Bob Dole).

And actually, he got eight (8) votes. :) Kerry got three (3).

[politicasista]

25. So they will vote at midnight tonight?

I thought everything was tomorrow. :shrug:
