BIG NH VOTER TURNOUT

Reports are coming in of a big turnout in New Hampshire today. In my town, the clerk told me that she had already seen 300 voters by 11 AM. I calculate that, if that rate continues until the polls close at 7:30 PM here, then we will see more than 1100 voters out of a total of approximately 1500 registered voters in my town. The clerk said she might run out of ballots and need to get more.

That dovetails with this story about turnout, and this one, and this one.

Matt Drudge is also reporting an "epic turnout for Dems", with clerks calling for more ballots in the heavily Democratic districts on the Seacoast and in Nashua.

We may exceed Secretary of State Bill Gardner's prediction of 500,000, which would be a new Presidential primary record.
