5. huh? what do you mean? It's not a tie?

[NAO]

8. Recalling in Bush's favor, too.

Maybe they could not handle the massive voter turnout. They only had 26 voters in 2000.

[NAO]

3. What about the Nader Voter?

Did he/she get disenfranchised?

N.H. Cast Nation's 1st Election Day Votes

6 minutes ago

By JIM COLE, Associated Press Writer

HART'S LOCATION, N.H. - The nation's first Election Day votes were cast and counted just after midnight Tuesday in this mountain hamlet, with President Bush (news - web sites) and John Kerry (news - web sites) each receiving 15 votes. Ralph Nader (news - web sites) received one.


The communities of Hart's Location and Dixville Notch since 1948 sporadically have been taking advantage of a state law that allows communities to close polls early if all registered voters have cast ballots. The 26 registered voters in Dixville Notch were still were casting votes shortly after midnight.


In 2000, both communities chose President Bush over Democrat Al Gore (news - web sites). In Hart's Location, Bush won 17-13. In Dixville Notch, about 50 miles to the north, Bush had 21, Gore five and Ralph Nader one vote.


By state law, polls must be open between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. But nothing prevents a town from opening the polls earlier and closing after all potential voters have cast ballots.

14. WTF is going on? Yahoo News calling the TIE

[Zero Gravitas]

15. The Tie is in Hart's Location, N.H.

another early voting town.

2000 was 17-13 for Bush.

IF this swing holds true for all Republican voters, Kerry will win easily.
