Dixville Notch Votes: "First" Votes Of 2012

For people who follow Presidential elections, they wil alredy know about the tradition of Dixville Notch. They cast the traditional "first" votes of eleciton day.

They cast their ballots at midnight, all 10 of them, and count them right there.

They just voted and tallied their votes...and the results are....

Obama - 5 votes
Romney - 5 votes

Yep, a tie. First time in history in Dixville Notch that there has been a tie.

This may be a sign of things to come.

No sign. Obamas wins with 332 electoral votes.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.


Ready to get this election mess over with to tell ya the truth.

This does not bode well.

Why am I not surprised?

For the first time in my life, this election cycle feels much more corrupt and scripted than ever before. The Dixxville-Notch tie seems like one more building block in this scripted seeming ordeal.

For Romney? i agree.

Just heard on he radio another town(forgot the name already) that had:

Obama: 23
Romney: 9
Johnson: 1

Let me try to find a source to back that up.

Thanks Uniceft17.

I could care less about Obama or Romney. They're arrogant fools. But Mr. Johnson has a vote. I like that.
