Election Day 2008’s first returns are in, and Sen. Barack Obama already leads Sen. John McCain 64 percent to 32 percent.

Of course, it sounds much less impressive when you realize that means he won by 16 votes.

The New Hampshire villages of Dixville Notch and Hart’s Location — by tradition, the first to vote in the nation — have already opened and, having reached 100 percent turnout within minutes of the midnight EST opening, closed their polling places. The results: Obama won Dixville Notch 15 votes to 6 for McCain, and Hart’s Location 17 votes to 10 for McCain and two (write-in) for Rep. Ron Paul.

Obama is the first Democrat to win Dixville Notch since Hubert Humphrey did it in 1968.
