Saint Anselm College Results Watch Party Split

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire–When the networks called New Hampshire for Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., half of the watch party at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at Saint Anselm College errupted in cheers — and the other half waited in relative silence for the next state to be called.

Several other states with large Saint Anselm populations also went for Sen. Obama, shortly after 8 o’clock: Connecticut, Maine, and Massachusetts.

Political trivia is entering round three… ‘Socialism Sucks’ and “Luc Longley” are tied for first, but “The Presidentials” and “Red Scare” aren’t far behind.
