Mike Bloomberg wins Dixville Notch as voting begins in New Hampshires first in the nation primary
Published 2 mins ago

By Bob Brigham
Tiny Dixville Notch population five traditionally votes at one minute after midnight to start the primary.
US Democrats braced for a volatile, consequential primary on Tuesday in New Hampshire as leftist Bernie Sanders and youthful challenger Pete Buttigieg fight for pole position in the race for who faces Donald Trump in Novembers presidential election.
But both were bested by Mike Bloomberg, who won both the Republican side and the Republican side despite not being on the ballot.
Bloomberg received on vote in the GOP primary and two in the Democratic Primary.
Sanders and Buttigieg each received a single vote.
Tensions have risen steadily as Granite Staters, notoriously independent-minded and astute voters, prepared to troop to polls across this northeastern battleground that has just 1.3 million people but plays a hugely influential role in the American political landscape.

You can't alienate an entire group. Bloomberg will have to pick Warren.

I love Bernie too, have the t-shirt and the Funko Pop Bernie, but I want a woman.
