Sec'y of State website indicates turnout in Cheshire on par with turnout in the state, but far less than turnout in other towns of the 5th congressional district. Not sure why.
There are 67 (67!) non-hillary/obama votes on the dem side. I wonder if the thirty people who voted for Edwards failed to realize they could actually influence the final tally or just didn't get the memo about the whole dropping out of the race thing.
Obama only won by 31 votes. I wonder what things would have looked like with that 67 spread between the two real candidates (okay, throw Gravel in there too).

Thanks for posting these!
The way it looks, the Democrats will take Cheshire in Nov. Pretty dynamic group of Republicans.

I'm guessing Edwards got a lot of absentee ballots among those 30 votes... probably cast before he dropped out.
