Ron Paul picked up two write in votes for President in Hart’s Location in New Hampshire, one of the traditionaly early voting locations in New Hampshire along with Dixville Notch in the White Mountains.

Don’t be suprised to see Paul get his fair share of write-in votes today. Some will be counted as they are in New Hampshire, others will be tossed. Paul is also officially on the ballot in Montana and Louisiana and may affect the outcome in both states if they are close either way.

While Paul may never become President, he certainly has carved out his own niche in American politics and a significant one at that. It will be interesting to see if politicians in the future, especially in the GOP, expand upon it.

Oh yes, Obama leads McCain 32-16 after both towns tallied their votes. Not a good sign for the McCain campaign hoping to turn New Hampshire red and make it to the White House by the skin of their teeth.
