I could easily see both called at 8pm ET or both lasting a while longer.

Both will be called by at 8pm Eastern, as there will be enough vote in from the 7pm closing towns to, in conjunction with the exit polls, declare a winner.

The Dems better hope its them. If Clinton is that close to Sanders, he may as well drop out.

Hell, Bernie may even be declared the winner after Dixville Notch votes at midnight!

Does most of the state close at 7PM? What about 8 PM?

According to The Green Papers, only New Hampshire's 13 cities have the option to close at 8PM.  The rest of the state will close at 7PM.  That's why I think enough of the vote will be in to declare a winner at 8PM. 

The networks won't declare a winner until all the polls are closed at 8.  AoSHQDD doesn't hold the same qualms about declaring a winner before all the polls are closed, though.

This is close to what I'm thinking.

I wonder if those exit polls will put the networks (broadcast and cable) in the position to call the state right away (one or both parties) if the winner or winners carry both genders.
