Obama is going to win!
The lead is now below 3000 votes, which with only 38% of votes and a CNN exit poll showing him winning, is very encouraging.

2. Fox's exit poll shows him winning as well. I'd love to see that.

8. Look, these county by county maps show him up by double digits in nearly
half.. with less than half the votes in each county counted. This is not making sense.

13. Yeah, but
most are less populated counties. HRC won the largest populated county. It goes back and forth in the county that Portsmouth is in.

9. The college town results are slow coming in
Keene is the only one with reports:

with 80% of precincts reporting

Obama 2048
Clinton 1479
Edwards 812


Plymouth (north central)
and Durham (southeast near the coast)
have not reported yet.

It will be interesting to see how those results compare to some other areas.

11. I don't think so
He's lost the largest populated county and now is losing in Portsmouth's county.

12. Even if he barely loses.....
remember that it wasn't all that long ago, polls showed Hillary at like 70%+ and I think Obama was around 11% (saw those figures on a news report earlier today), so this was a MAJOR comeback for him, and I think it bodes well for continued strong showings.

I have been leaning Edwards, but Obama is my 2nd, so I will pull for him vs Hillary.
