US: Voting underway in the Democratic New Hampshire primary, with polls closing
at 1900ET (0000GMT, 0100CET, 0800HKT) and the final results expected as early as
2130ET (0230GMT, 0330CET, 1030HKT) according to the NYT.
- Given that the process of a primary election is much simpler than a caucus the
prospect of a repeat of the Iowa caucuses debacle is much reduced.
- Left-wing Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt) is the favourite to win New Hampshire,
with former Vice President Joe Biden - likely anticipating a poor result -
having already left the state to travel to South Carolina, which holds it
primary on 29 February.
- 33 delegates up for grabs in New Hampshire, less than 1% of the total number
of pledged delegates that will attend the Democratic National Convention to
decide on the presidential nominee in July.
