NH Primary: Pre-Election Polls Wildly Different Than Results Announced for Clinton/Obama  —  [UPDATED several times at end of article, and still developing with new updates...]  —  I'm not sure why Obama would have conceded so soon, given the virtually inexplicable turn of events in New Hampshire tonight.
Chris Bowers / Open Left:
Clinton Wins New Hampshire  —  Wow.  Everyone has now called New Hampshire for Clinton.  Shocking, stunning, amazing that she could overcome an 8% deficit in the polls in just one day.  The huge turnout among Democratic women did the trick, as did her ability to stay even with Obama among the massive liberal vote.
