He's a (black) friend I haven't seen since middle school, but he heard I was looking for New Hampshire first-hand stories. He wrote this to me on Monday, before the vote (and before the tears). There is some incredibly accurate analysis which challenges the mainstream media narrative and some of the conclusions drawn by this blog; there is also just plain interesting observation. I have made bold certain sections for emphasis and removed peoples' last names. Otherwise, these are his words.

Approximate Total Voter Turnout in New Hampshire
265,704 Democratic Voters
229,275 Republican Voters
Total Voters - 494,979
Number of votes for and percentage of Democratic Votes
Number of Votes Percentage of Votes
Hillary Clinton 112,251 42.25%
Barack Obama 104,772 39.43%
John Edwards 48,681 18.32%
John McCain 88,466 38.59%
Mitt Romney 75,343 32.86%
Mike Huckabee 26,768 11.68%
Rudy Guiliani 20,395 8.9%
Ron Paul 18303 7.98% Percentage of total votes cast assuming total 494,979 votes Hillary Clinton 22.68%
Barack Obama 21.17%
John Edwards 9.83%
John McCain 17.87%
Mitt Romney 15.22%
Rudy Guiliani 4.12%
Ron Paul 3.7%
The numbers are approximate and I left out any candidate and their votes
that did not get at least 5% of their respective parties votes.
The difference here between Democratic voter turnout and Republican is 36,429.
Still a Democratic win.

Now the New Hampshire primary has come and gone. The vote totals, from CNN were: 93,617 for Obama 100,541 for Clinton 43,432 for Edwards 11,735 for Richardson 67,749 for Romney 79,350 for McCain 18,413 for Giuliani 16,361 for Paul 23,811 for Huckabee These are totals with 89% of precincts reporting for both sides - I gotta get up in the morning. I'll leave the effect of the last 11% to all you political hoot owls. The delegate count used in the calculations below matches CNN's figures. On the Democratic side, delegates are awarded proportionally with a minimum requirement of 15% to get delegates. On the Republican side, the delegates are awarded proportionally with a minimum requirement of 10%. New Hampshire has 22 pledged Democratic delegates and 12 pledged Republican delegates. From Graniteprof, here is what the candidates have spent on TV ads: Obama: $2.1 million Hillary Clinton: $1.65 million John Edwards: $1.2 million Bill Richardson: $700,000 Mitt Romney: $3.9 million John McCain: $1.1 million Rudy Giuliani: Just under $1 million Ron Paul: $270,000 Mike Huckabee: $160,000 Caveat: These are TV ads on WMUR, the only commercial station in New Hampshire with statewide reach. Part of New Hampshire is in the Boston media market, but I could not find expenditures by the campaigns on Boston stations. These amounts represent only the supposedly less expensive all-New-Hampshire market. That should make them all apples to apples comparisons, anyway. So, we crunch the numbers and we get: Obama spent $22.43 per vote, Clinton spent $16.41 per vote, Edwards spent $27.63 per vote, and Richardson spent $59.65 per vote. For each delegate, Obama spent $233K, Clinton spent $183K, and Edwards spent $300K. It looks like Richardson did not get any delegates. Romney spent $57.75 per vote, McCain spent $13.86 per vote, Giuliani spent $54.31 per vote, Paul spent $16.50 per vote, and Huckabee spent $6.72 per vote. For each delegate, Romney spent $975K, McCain spent $157K and Huckabee spent $160K. Giuliani and Paul did not get any delegates. Of the candidates who did manage to get delegates, Romney is clearly getting the least bang for his megabucks, by quite a margin. He might as well stand in the median of I-89 burning $50 bills.
