Next up: New Hampshire set to vote in nation’s first primary

“The people of New Hampshire have become accustomed to seeing candidates around town, especially in the last week since the Iowa caucuses, and the campaigns take a similar tactic here, intimate settings like sports bars and diners become venues for last ditch opportunities to appeal to primary voters on both sides of the aisle”, Warren explained.

While other states beat New Hampshire that year, New Hampshire has had the first primary since 1920. In recent days, former President Bill Clinton has accused some Sanders’ supporters of waging “sexist” attacks, and feminist Gloria Steinem and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright have criticized women who aren’t supporting Clinton.

Despite Monday’s winter weather blitz in southern New Hampshire, large crowds are expected at the polls Tuesday.

In the modern era, the victor of the GOP primary in New Hampshire has gone on to win the Republican nomination with only two exceptions: Bob Dole came in second in 1996 and George W. Bush also came in second in 2000. “And they’ve played the “woman card” very well in the state in trying to reduce Bernie’s support from women”.

“I ought to be running in a Democrat primary, I got more Democrats for me – you have any Republican friends?”

New Hampshire’s record at picking nominees is…spotty. Ted Cruz of Florida, who “won” by a hair at 38 percent.

Citing his second place finish in the Iowa caucus, Trump said he learned a lot about the ground game the week between the contests in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Asked if she thought she would win, Clinton said: “You know, I just love the way New Hampshire does this”. Throughout the televised debates, Kasich has sought the mantle of the reasonable and upbeat candidate amid a Republican field focused on the dangers posed by immigrants and terrorism. Those candidates who fare poorly could see donations dry up and face pressure to withdraw from the race. Decades of political science research show that when it comes to the general election, most independents fall into party lines and vote for whichever candidate the party they prefer has nominated.

In the final WMUR/CNN poll before the primary, Donald Trump remained on top with Florida Sen. Bush told CBS News’ Major Garrett he felt good about his prospects tonight, knocked Trump and said he was going to SC no matter the result in New Hampshire.

Merrimack High School is one to watch. In Iowa, it is conducted by individual political parties.

A RealClearPolitics poll average shows Sanders – who has called for nothing short of a “political revolution” – leading 53.3 percent to 40.5 percent for Clinton in New Hampshire.

Cruz, who won the Iowa caucuses, has the money and support of the right-wing of the Republican Party to compete here and head to SC.

Half of Republicans said they feel betrayed by politicians from the Republican Party, while fewer than 2 in 10 Democrats say they feel betrayed by Democratic politicians.

Cruz, of course, is looking south to South Carolina’s primary on February 20 and the Super Tuesday contests in Texas, Georgia, Tennessee and elsewhere on March 1.
