Dixville Notch, NH has returned the first results in the 2024 US election. The town voted at midnight and only six ballots were cast, so tallying the results didn’t take long. In the presidential race the results were evenly split, with 3 votes each for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.

    In the event of an exact tie, the seat is awarded to the male candidate, and the female candidate is put in jail. /j

      In the event of a tight race, the Supreme Court can decide to speed up the process by not counting black votes.

        Agreed. Part of me wants to skip classes for the week and just black out for a few days, at least until Pennsylvania’s called.

        “Yeah, well…you shot a guy.”

        “What? No. That wasn’t this show. You’re breaking the 4th wall, Liz.”

    Do you think they made it a tie on purpose? They knew they had the chance to troll the entire country and took it, lol.

    Funny, over here results can only start coming in when all polling stations are closed so as not to influence the vote of people further west…

      That’s standard practice everywhere else in the US. New Hampshire has this thing about being first, though. They have the earliest presidential primary as well. Releasing early results for this one tiny town is a minor publicity gimmick that shouldn’t have any impact on the overall election. Even the rest of New Hampshire’s towns will wait until Tuesday evening to report their results.

    In the Governor’s race they voted 5 Rep 1 Dem.

    In the primary the 6 votes were 4 registered Republicans and 2 independents.

    I’d say it’s not data, but a nice start for Harris

      I think it’s interesting to note that in the 2020 presidential election there was only 5 voters and all 5 voted for Joe Biden.

      Because it’s tiny not because of the voting.

        Imagine the single bar in that town, the night after 3 people voted Democrat and 3 voted Republican.
