2016 NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY RESULTS —

Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump won their respective primaries on Tuesday. John Kasich came in second, followed by Ted Cruz who came in narrowly ahead of Jeb Bush. Marco Rubio finished a disappointing fifth after his disastrously robotic debate performance on Saturday night. And Chris Christie did even worse, placing sixth. He is headed home to New Jersey on Wednesday as is expected to announce he will suspend his campaign.

Here are the latest results as of Wednesday at 12:31 PM EST from the NYT.

5:59 PM EST: IDEOLOGY – Democratic electorate looks more liberal this cycle according to exit polls: “Tonight, we’re seeing a rise in the number of liberals in New Hampshire. In 2008 in New Hampshire, 20 percent identified as ‘very liberal’ — this year, 26 percent see themselves that way. Overall, liberals in the New Hampshire Democratic primary are up from 56 percent in 2008 to 68 percent today. And Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire see ideological distinctions between the two candidates. The NBC News Exit Poll finds that half (55 percent) of New Hampshire Democrats generally feel Clinton is ‘about right’ on the issues. Still, a sizeable portion — 34 percent — thinks Clinton is ‘not liberal enough.’ Only 8 percent think Clinton is ‘too liberal.'”

5:22 PM EST: EXIT POLLS – First exit polls released: “Independents are turning out in substantial numbers in both the Republican and Democratic primaries in New Hampshire, with many voters in both contests expressing interest in a political outsider for their parties’ nominees. Political independents account for about four in 10 primary voters in both the Republican and Democratic contests, according to preliminary exit poll results. That’s typical of the usual high turnout among independents in New Hampshire. They’re less prevalent in other state primaries.”

12:53 PM EST: BEN CARSON to skip his own primary party in New Hampshire. Maybe he needs a change of clothes: “The retired neurosurgeon will instead fly to South Carolina in the afternoon, his campaign said. Following Tuesday’s first-in-the-nation primary in New Hampshire, South Carolina Republicans will vote next, on Feb. 20.”

12:36 PM EST: WE HAVE A WINNER? – Fox News accidentally declared Donald Trump the winner of New Hampshire’s primary: “During routine testing in preparation for the New Hampshire primary a malfunction occurred which briefly showed errant data on our website,” Fox News Chief Digital Officer Jeff Misenti said in a statement. “This error has been rectified. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.”

12:23 PM EST: TURNOUT – New Hampshire’s Secretary of State expects high voter turnout: “I expect that we’ll exceed 500,000,” Gardner told WBZ NewsRadio 1030. “I think we’ll get up into even 550,000.”
