I hope the results in Dixville Notch, NH are not a bad sign....

As Dixville Notch Goes..? [Mark Steyn]

Gulp. They vote early, but thank God they don’t vote often. I’ve never paid much attention to the publicity stunt of Dixville Notch’s 100 per cent turnout at midnight, but for once it may portend something:

2000 Bush 21 Gore 5

2004 Bush 19 Kerry 7

2008 McCain 6 Obama 15

Bad omen perhaps, as they correctly voted in the past two elections.

For those who may be unaware, not only has this poll been the most accurate in the past 4 elections, but it's bi-partisan. It's run by Celina Lake (Bill Clinton) and Ed Goeas (sp- Repub. insider)

Given that they have inside connections to both parties, that they have a reputation of excellence to protect and a financial interst at stake (not household names like Gallup)- this is the only poll that I've been paying attention to all along. When it was down 6? yesterday, I was really disheartened. But these numbers are outstanding, and imo, an objective reason to be optimistic.
