Former Vice President Joe Biden took all five of the votes cast for president in Dixville Notch, a tiny New Hampshire township along the US-Canada border that is among the first places in the country to make its presidential preference known.

The ballots were cast in the minutes after midnight, becoming some of the first cast and counted on Election Day.

3. What is it a town of 200 and only 5 voted? That is something.

8. The population is 12.

Or, it was for the 2010 census.

All eligible voters get together, vote, count, and announce, usually within a minute or two of midnight.

(Edited to add CNN link that explains.)

9. Down to five now, and that's because someone moved there

recently, which gave them just barely the number of people needed to hold their election (from their Wikipedia page).

10. In 2016 they voted 4 for Clinton, 2 for Trump, one for Johnson and 1 a write-in for Romney.

So it went from half D, half R to fully D.

He takes revenge.
