    Right now: (out of 30)

    Obama- 9
    Hilary- 9
    Edwards- 4

    Hilary won the popular vote, but tied Obama in # of delegates.

    Doesn't Obama win if he gets the most delegates. When did we ever go by the popular vote?

    Right now, CNN had him at 12, Hilary at 11, Edwards at 4. 3 delegates left to decide, and Obama is expected to get more of the undecided votes...so he'd be expected to get at least 1 more of these delegates making it a tie.

    There was a huge disparity between the pre-election polls and the result.

    Chris Matthews is speculating that when white democrats got into the voting both, they couldn't or wouldn't vote for the black man, no matter what they told the pollsters they were going to do.

    The simpler solution is the people who were polled simply weren't an unbiased sample of those who actually went to the polls.

    Ugh oh...we have a case of Voting Fraud now.

    Its already confirmed that Ron Paul votes were thrown out.

    Looks like we're going to have a RECOUNT! Hopefully some votes for Obama got thrown out too, since he never got that huge boost from the college towns like expected.

    Its beginning to look like Obama and Paul got screwed. Obama beat Hillary by the poll numbers on paper ballets. The machines are where HIllary got her mojo from. And it looks like Guliani got a boost from the machines, and Paul got screwed over by them, and should have got 4th over Guliani.

    What a mess. Get the rid of those damn machines, and just do all paper ballots.

    I wouldn't put it past the Clinton camp to hire people to hack the machines, she is that type of facetious person.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Allegations of vote fraud in New Hampshire’s primary are growing. In what was advertised as a fair and open election in the Live Free or Die state, it appears that concerns of the fraud and data manipulation are viable.

    The data from Diebold Accuvote optical scanner electronic voting machines is up to 5% points different than the hand-written ballots that were cast. Sutton Town has now reported an error in transposing votes and an employee of LHS Associates, whom counted 81% of the vote, has a criminal record.

    Township clerk Jennifer Call of Sutton, New Hampshire has confirmed that ‘31′ votes were in fact cast for Ron Paul in Sutton when ‘0′ votes were initially reported. They claim that it was an error in transposing the data during transfer to the summary sheet. These 31 residents from Sutton can rest assured that their votes are NOW being counted. But what about the rest of the townships?

    The results from the Diebold machines, easily hacked in the HBO documentary Hacking Democracy, don’t add up. They claim that Ron Paul had over 2% fewer votes than the hand ballots suggest, and gave Giuliani a .5% boost for 4th place instead. The same ballot machines also show that Hillary faired 5% better than with the hand ballots, taking 1st away from Obama. See this site for more detailed analysis.

    In another developing story, Bev Harris of Black Box Voting.org has confirmed that a key employee of LHS Associates, John Elder is a convicted felon with cocaine trafficking charges and election related complaints. LHS Associates holds the contract for programming all of the New Hampshire’s Diebold voting machines, which combined count 81 per cent of the vote.

    “They are counting everything in public real nice, they fill out a form in public real nice and then they transfer it to another form and they call that a summary sheet and then that is the one they send in,” explained Harris.

    Bev Harris said in reference to the Sutton fiasco:

    “What happened is she said they did not transfer the number correctly and put zero instead of 31 - that is unacceptable as an answer.”

    The cost of a hand re-count is estimated at $67,000. It is not known at this time whether the Paul or Obama campaigns will consider a re-count.</div>

    Maybe the polls were right after all....
