149. The question is which is incorrect, the exit polls or the machines
In one of your cases, chances favor the exit polls being out of whack.

NH has very low-tech electronic voting: fill in the ovals, etc with a very defined paper trail. No BBV. So at least there the big disparity is more likely due to bad exit polling. it does not rule out a very clever systematic plot to subvert the system, but it makes it less likely.
