*UPDATE* - The First Votes Are In: Dixville Notch Votes Obama in Landslide Victory Over McCain
DIXVILLE NOTCH, N.H. -- Democrat Barack Obama defeated John McCain 15-6. Independent Ralph Nader was also on the ballot, but received no votes.
The first voter, following tradition established in 1948, was picked ahead of the midnight voting and the rest of the town’s 19 registered voters followed suit in Tuesday’s first minutes.
Town Clerk Rick Erwin says the northern New Hampshire town is proud of its tradition, but says the most important thing is that the turnout represents 100 percent vote.
President Bush won the vote in Dixville Notch in 2004 on the way to his re-election.
*BIGGER & BETTER UPDATE*: CNN Projects Obama to win OHIO & PENNSYLVANIA.Also, Al Franken is leading the Senate race in Minnesota.
