There was massive turn out last night in the New Hampshire primary after all. While Comrade Bernie Sanders numbers crashed from 2016, Donald Trump’s numbers set a record for an incumbent president. Despite being in a basically uncontested primary, Trump managed to get more votes than both Obama and Bush combined!

Pretty amazing when you think about it. Trump almost got three times as many primary votes as Obama did in the 2012 and double what Dubya Bush got in 2004. New Hampshire is more of a blue state than a purple state these days. The Democrats are going to be crying all night on November 3rd.
