"Primary?" you say. "You're voting in the Republican primary?"
I'm voting in the NH Primary and there is a Democratic ballot. It's one of 17 states designated "Open Primary" although it is technically a "semi-Open Primary" state for reasons stated below:
It is not a closed primary, in which votes can be cast in a party primary only by people registered with that party. Undeclared voters — those not registered with any party — can vote in either party primary. However, it does not meet a common definition of an open primary, because people registered as Republican or Democrat on voting day cannot cast ballots in the primary of the other party.[1] Wikipedia
Reported results thus far from our two smallest precincts who voted 12:01AM this morning.
Dixville Notch, NH has 9 registered voters. They turn out 100%.
Barack Obama 3 votes
Mitt Romney 2 votes
Jon Huntsman 2 votes
Newt Gingrich 1 vote
Ron Paul 1 votes
