New Hampshire Primary Results

The New Hampshire Primary results are in and in all honesty, played out as I expected, at least when it comes to the winner.

The results of the primary went like this:

Mitt Romney: 39.4%
Ron Paul: 22.8%
Jon Huntsman: 16.8%
Newt Gingrich: 9.4%
Rick Santorum: 9.4%
Rick Perry: .7%

With the exception of Paul finishing in second instead of Hunstman, my prediction was pretty close. I thought Gingrich would finish behind Santorum but obviously the two tied percentage-wise.

Romney right now has full control of the Republican Primary and Ron Paul, Jon Hunstman, and Rick Santorum have a good chance to challenge him, but only if the field diminishes. Otherwise, Romney will run away with party nomination.
