Why is Bernie leading in NH? Because their motto is really "Live For Free or Die."
That's what I saw on Fox News.

I could only find one ad for Gilmore. I thought those pictures were crap.
I thought about doing that but I wanted to choose whichever seemed closest. Democratic one did not really matter since Sanders was 99% for each.
It is. They all are.
please tell me this is real ad, epic
I wish I could have found a better ad for Bernie. I never got a response from PoliGAF.

If I'm not mistaken, there's like three small towns in NH that are already voting as of midnight.
Yep, Bernie is leading 17 votes to 9. He is crushing it.

They believe Trump will fall and they may eventually rise. Jeb is in complete denial though.
Kasichmentum is real. Rubio in big trouble
Basically, 2-3 families voting against each other.

Because it influences choices? It is only 37 votes.

Fantastic opening post, OP. This is gonna be a fun primary.
Do they not keeping doing this throughout the day?
Even if it is this few it still could make quite a difference.
Technically these are exit polls, right? During the general election they can also poll and announce what these 37 people vote for at midnight as well.
I mean technically they do this on election night as well via exit polls. There's not really anything you can do to stop it when you think about it.
No, it's just a publicity stunt/tradition for these handful of towns that have so little going on that they have less than 40 people in total in their population.

Snow turned out to be nothing. Won't affect turnout.

CNN's front page graphic for NH right now includes a picture of Santorum. Poor guy flew so low under the radar this election season that no one noticed he dropped out :'(
A few tiny towns that vote at midnight. Traditional.

Whose the 7% other for Democrats?

Well in Germany it is against the law to publish exit polls before all the polling stations have closed.
Very rarely do they leak out before that and it's always a big drama and I'm sure heads roll.

The vote tally is for a whopping 28 votes thus far. So that 7% is actually two people who voted for a guy named Greenstein. I doubt he'll have more than 1% when all the votes are counted.
Not till after polls close. Polls in those tiny towns opened at midnight and everybody already voted. Rest of the state is different.

Sanders wins and expands upon his recent surges in polling but not enough to take the next state (South Carolina)
Trump wins due to the supposed moderates all placing similarly
Jeb! drops out and its the headline
Christie drops out
Fiorina drops out

Jeb and Christie not dropping out
Some of these places have only 9 people. Screw an exit poll, you'd almost need to sequester them all to avoid the result leaking.

This should be an entetaining day.
Any of the following would cause a shake-up for the GOP, because they would completely screw with the post-Iowa narrative. In approximate order of resulting drama:
1) Trump not winning.
2) Both senators outside the top 3.
3) Any of the governors getting 2nd.
4) Either Cruz or Rubio (individually) outside the top 3. By far the mostly likely of this list and one might argue probable.
Fiorina and Carson need to drop out after this. They're just being jerks to drag this on any longer. No one else dare drop out when the position for Establishment frontrunner and possible shoehorned coronation at a brokered convention is a toss-up.
For the Democrats, if Clinton can manage to lose by less than 10 points she could effectively claim a win out of it, given this is Sanders' best state.

Well to be quite honest asking 9 people and posting their results is hardly what I would call a particularly meaningful 'exit poll'.
Then you don't really need to worry about it influencing the Primary.

Anyone here live or have freinds or fam in NH? Who they voting for?
christie has events scheduled in sc, and i dont think bush drops til fl
All my friends and family live in NH.
My friend are all left leaning and like Sanders but are registered independent and plan to vote in the Republican primary for Trump since they think he will be easiest to beat in November. I asked why they aren't voting Sanders and they said the polls make him look like a sure thing. I think only one or two liberal friends I know are actually voting for Sanders out of around 20.
Family members are mostly voting for kaisch except grandmother voting for Clinton.
Because even if it didn't reflect in NH results, the debate showed that Rubio is vulnerable and is open for being taken down. They can still be viable if they do better than Rubio in the later states.
Cruz also showed that a negative media narrative can stop momentum in its tracks.
They might also think there will be no clear winner of delegates and there will be an open convention.
And what percentage of the overall vote?
