A Barrington New Hampshire voter, disgusted with the corrupted system, destroys his ballot at the polls in this morning's Primary election.

In the final hours before the primary that will rock the nation, your faithful editors spent their evening talking to supporters of several candidates in downtown Dover, attending a Dennis Kucinich event, interviewing Viggo Mortensen, going to a John Edwards event that turned out to be cancelled, and being given the brush off by an arrogant Obama campaign worker.

Sunday's Presidential Primary debates not much more than extended press conference.

I approached the Media Center at St. Anselm's College yesterday afternoon with some amount of trepidation. I was going to the NH Presidential Debates without receiving advance press credentials, essential for admission to the inner circle of the Fourth Estate.

A new report shows that Verizon's savings from a tax loophole in FairPoint deal would fund high-speed Internet throughout Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. The report was sent to Governor Lynch and every member of the New Hampshire legislature.

I was at the Oprah/Obama event at the Civic Center in Manchester last night. It was a real circus - thousands and thousands of people filling the entire plaza outside waiting to get in. I didn't go in, but gave out yard signs and hundreds of leaflets questioning if Obama is anti-war, urging people to ask Obama to make specific commitments on the War in Iraq.

New Hampshire's answer to The New York Post announces it wants McCain for president, and the national media seems to think NH voters will care.

For those people unfamiliar with The Union Leader, Sunday's editorial endorsing the senator may look like a coup for the McCain camp.
