Dixville Notch is in, and in the secrecy of the polling booth all those white folks didn’t have any trouble actually pulling the lever for the black guy.
2000
George W. Bush – 21
Albert A. Gore Jr. – 5
Ralph Nader – 1
2004
George W. Bush – 19
John Kerry – 7
2008
Barack Obama – 15
John McCain – 6
McCain carried Dixville Notch in the Republican primary.
No Democratic Presidential candidate has carried Dixville Notch since HHH beat Nixon 13-11 in 1968. Obama’s 15 votes seems to be the all-time Democratic record.
Brethren and sistern, verily I say unto you:
surely a landslide cometh, and it will bury
all the filth of McCain and all the bile of Palin:
yea, the GOP entire, with the rottenness thereof.
Update Now Hart’s Location is in: 17 Obama, 10 McCain, 2 Ron Paul. Bush beat Kerry there, 16-14.

Professor of Public Policy at the NYU Marron Institute for Urban Management and editor of the Journal of Drug Policy Analysis. Teaches about the methods of policy analysis about drug abuse control and crime control policy, working out the implications of two principles: that swift and certain sanctions don't have to be severe to be effective, and that well-designed threats usually don't have to be carried out.
