Accounts from my sources on the ground in New Hampshire and elsewhere put turnout way up โ probably an all time record. First-time registrants are also very high, which is probably really good news for Obama and maybe a little good news for McCain.
Having said that, letโs not forget that Mitt Romneyโs campaign is utilizing Alex Gageโs TargetPoint technology and techniques, which specialize in reaching out to voters who arenโt reachable through the usual sources (local television news, local news radio, etc.). TargetPoint worked wonders for the Bush-Cheney campaign back in 2004; can it work wonders for Romney today? Weโll know in a few hours.
(If youโre wondering why TargetPoint couldnโt deliver Iowa for Romney, letโs remember that the Iowa caucuses are a very limited pool of potential voters to work with.)
UPDATE: Wow. From Drudge:
Secretary of State is making runs to Seacoast โ Hampton, Portsmouth โ and Southern Hillsborough โ Pelham, Nashua โ to bring extra democratic ballots. Many towns are reporting shortagesโฆ
At this point, about 1:35 p.m., Iโm about ready to call it for Obama.
