Harris and Trump tie in Dixville Notch midnight vote to kick off Election Day

https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/05/politics/dixville-notch-new-hampshire-2024-results/index.html

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have tied with three votes each in the tiny New Hampshire township of Dixville Notch, kicking off Election Day in one of the first places in the country to report its presidential preference.

The unincorporated township, located along the US-Canada border in New Hampshire’s northern tip, opened and closed its poll just after midnight ET in a tradition that dates back to 1960. Four Republicans and two undeclared voters participated.

While Dixville Notch isn’t always predictive of the eventual winner – or even the state’s pick – its annual production, despite a dwindling population, is a success story for local leaders and a reason to smile for political junkies eager for an early taste of the day’s events.

In the Congressional race, the vote this year was 4-2 for the Democrat.

In short, folks shouldn't be reading much into the Dixville Notch results.

Out yonder in that over-indulged self-important nonsense sector of the sand pile.
