Washington, Jan. 8 -- Voters in two New Hampshire hamlets cast their ballots Tuesday just after midnight in the state's first-in-the-nation presidential primary, hours before the rest of the state's polling places open.
Reports from the hamlet of Dixville Notch in New Hampshire and near the Canadian border said people favoured Senator John McCain in the Republican primary. McCain got four votes and Senator Barack Obama won seven votes in the Democratic contest. Dixville Notch has a population of 75.
Obama and McCain also won in midnight voting in Hart's Location, which has a population 42.
The last polls close at 8 p.m.
