If the latter, I'm taking it with a grain of salt. Pete is doing very well but I'd be surprised if Bernie doesn't end up on top by a little bit.

Salem had almost 4000 votes in 2016. CNN has around 700 in right now.

Hanover (Dartmouth) and Durham (UNH) have nothing in right now. Each is worth another 4000 votes. So there are around 11,000 votes out there.
