Keene and some more Volvo towns are in, but Hillary's still ahead. is in. Women so far are turning out more for Hillary, however -- by a 13 point margin. And the CNN pundits are still bashing the Clintons.

The vote by county results are here. Here's a description -- I'm waiting to see the "Volvo Town" results.
Update [2008-1-8 21:6:37 by Big Tent Democrat]: CNN Exit Polling shows Hillary MIGHT have won New Hampshire. she took 47% of the women's vote to Obama's 34%. She lost men to Obama 42 to 30%. Women comprised 57% if the vote. The Media Misogyny is not taken to kindly by women. My math tells me that means Hillary won.
That would be a shocking result.
Update [2008-1-8 20:9:5 by Big Tent Democrat]: WMUR says the "refreshed" exit polls show a close race. I think we have to expect it to be close now. Hillary has the "Comeback Kid" story revving up.
Update [2008-1-8 19:57:49 by Big Tent Democrat]: Watching WMUR- the ABC NH affiliate, the hinting is closer than expected. Expecting the Comeback Kid line.
I hope it is true. I hate the Media and I hate the way Hillary has been treated.
Something else, it seems clear that Edwards got buried. He should drop out right? Where's Joe Trippi?
