With 95% counted President Obama has 47,030 NH primary votes for 82%

In the end he will probably end up with about 50,000 votes--not bad for a primary nobody paid any attention to. In 2004 Bush ended up with about 79% of the vote. In '72, the year Dick Nixon won a landslide re-election he actually only received 67% in the GOP NH Primary.
