Gingrich wins, Romney sixth in NH: Apparent Google Glitch Shows New Hampshire Primary Results

Apparent Google Glitch Shows New Hampshire Primary Results
Updated: January 10, 2012 | 12:40 p.m.

What appears to have been a glitch had Google displaying results on Tuesday morning -- with 100 percent of precincts reporting -- for the New Hampshire primary.

The results, sourced to the Associated Press and displayed alongside searches for GOP hopefuls Mitt Romney and Buddy Roemer, showed front-runner Romney coming in sixth place, behind Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman and Michele Bachmann, who ended her campaign after last week's Iowa caucuses. Romney has consistently led polls by a wide margin.

Here is a screenshot of the apparent error, which appears to have been fixed as of 7:05 a.m. EST:

I think it would be interesting if the NH primary results differ widely from poll numbers. qb Jan 2012 #5

Will any Republicans be concerned about election integrity then?
