What do you think the initial characterizations of the races will be Tuesday?

[Eraserhead]

When the polls close, that is.

I'm guessing that Sanders will immediately be announced as the projected winner.

I have a weird feeling that while Trump will be characterized as leading, they won't be able to project him as the winner.

[IceSpear]

Same as you, basically. Even if Trump is leading comfortably in the exit poll, they're going to be more cautious after Iowa.

[Eraserhead]

I think that Rubio will overperform as compared to the polls again and give Trump a scare.

[Lief 🗽]

Both will be "too early to call."

Remember, with NH, the poll closings are staggered. So while the networks can't characterize the race until 8 ET, results will start coming in shortly after 7 ET. This should allow immediate calls (8 ET) on both sides.

Actually, returns will start coming in around 12:10AM.

No one cares about that one precinct.
