The US presidential election has begun-- on a small scale -- in several towns in New Hampshire state in the northeastern United States. The tiny town of Dixville Notch has had the honor of midnight voting tradition since 1960. It started just after midnight on Tuesday.

And the tally was announced in a matter of minutes. Eight people cast their ballots with 4 votes going to Democrat Hillary Clinton, 2 for Republican Donald Trump and one for the Libertarian Party's Gary Johnson. A write-in vote was cast for 2012 nominee Mitt Romney, who is not running. The midnight voting results in Dixville Notch are not predictive of the general election.
