The New Hampshire Union Leader reports:

A long and grueling 2012 New Hampshire primary campaign comes to an end Tuesday when an estimated 325,000 Granite Staters go to the polls, with most choosing the man they want to have oppose President Barack Obama in the fall general election campaign.

The Democrats are having a primary, too, but it is a formality. Obama is not opposed in New Hampshire — or anywhere for that matter — by any significant challengers.

As a result, Secretary of State William Gardner expects only 75,000 to vote in that primary as opposed to 250,000 in the Republican primary.
