Turnout looks to be really good.

This might get closed, but I know a lot of GD posters don't go to the primaries forum so I just wanted to point out turnout in New Hampshire is likely to break records.

2008 was the highest primary turnout ever and Dems got 287, 556.
This year we're over 273,000 with only 85% of the vote in.

This will be the biggest primary turnout in New Hampshire history.

To winning in November. No matter the candidate, if he/she doesn't generate the excitement and turnout, it will be four more years of what we have.

That Democratic turnout for an election is this big is a subject whose importance transcends the mere argument of who the candidate should be.

I hope the locking police let this post stand.

As for GD posters not going to the primaries board--I look, but am not a participant, as I don't fulfill the requirements. If you haven't been, put on your haz-mat suit first.
