DIXVILLE NOTCH, N.H. — Voters in two tiny northern New Hampshire towns cast the first votes in the state’s earliest presidential primary at midnight Monday, and gave Bill Bradley and John McCain the early lead.
Bradley had 13 votes and Al Gore 5 in the Democratic race. Among Republicans, McCain had 19 and George W. Bush 17.
But neither Dixville Notch nor Hart’s Location is known for foreshadowing the winners statewide.
