Are the delegates awarded in the NH primary valid?
This Politico source says " no delegates or alternates would be awarded based on the results of the unofficial primary", while the Green Papers source says "12 January 2024: Due to the non compliant 23 January primary, the state is docked from 32 to 10 delegate votes. Breakdown: 15 to 7 district, 5 to 2 at-large, and 3 to 1 pledged PLEO delegates; 5 to 0 voting DNC Members, 2 to 0 voting Senators, and 2 to 0 voting House members. The date of New Hampshire’s first determining step is in conflict with Rules 12.A and 21.C.1." .

I'm not sure which source is correct. (Maybe I'm missing something). David O. Johnson (talk) 23:20, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

Marianne Williamson needs a vote and percent count
I'm not too technical with Wiki, but she's missing a field for votes and vote percent. A "write-in" field would be good, considering most votes are unprocessed write-ins.Gaius Publius Scipio (talk) 00:27, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Can someone add a "Joe Biden" section?
Biden has just been declared the winner. I'd like to put in his vote totals, but I don't know how to add a new candidate in the image box. Gaius Publius Scipio (talk) 01:14, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Vandalism
The page currently states that Michelle Obama, who is not even running for president, has won the New Hampshire Democratic primary. Someone is obviously trying to sabotage this page. 174.130.47.140 (talk) 03:29, 24 January 2024 (UTC)


 * The vandalism was reverted, and will continue to be if it persists. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 03:32, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

“ Ceasefire” write-in
Is NH a state that reports all un-registered write-in? Or will those votes simply be reported as “scattering”? SecretName101 (talk) 00:51, 24 January 2024 (UTC)


 * In the last general election, it seems that NH reported individual write-in candidates, although some seem to be reported as scattered. Longestview (talk) 01:03, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Since “ceasefire” is not attached to a living individual, there’s a likelihood (not knowing the rules) that it might not get counted as anything but scattering SecretName101 (talk) 02:52, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Media sources haven’t broken down write-ins to my knowledge, but in the past, the official results have, so we have to wait for the moment.   ~Politicdude (About me, talk, contribs) 19:34, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Joe Biden votes
In the info box it says Biden got 50,000+ votes, but under results it is 30,000. Which is it?2604:3D09:C77:4E00:601E:3731:F07E:A102 (talk) 13:14, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Probably neither. Votes are still being counted, and the infobox and results section are not always updated together.  --Spiffy sperry (talk) 15:04, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
 * The info box is more frequently updated, but votes are still being counted, so none of them are final.  ~Politicdude (About me, talk, contribs) 19:35, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Info box inclusion
What are the requirements for being included in the infobox?

Marianne Williamson is considered a major candidate in the candidates page but is not in the infobox. Another possible requirement could be earning a delegate in the primary, but no delegates are awarded from this. If we use the requirements that there would hav been if delegates were awarded (10% of the vote or higher), then “Other write-in votes” should not be in the infobox. We need clarification. ~Politicdude (About me, talk, contribs) 19:42, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Results table error
Next to Ron DeSantis (write-in), the "<0.1%" is missing. Glasperlenspieler (talk) 17:04, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Just Biden & Philips in infobox?
Why not Williamson too like in the 2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries page? 2603:6011:9600:52C0:54B6:66A3:4FE:39FE (talk) 05:51, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * She received less than five percent of the vote. David O. Johnson (talk) 06:32, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Results table outdated
Biden has received 2500 more votes than the table shows and numbers are still being added on the NH Secretary of State page, as the final result from each town gets released. Someone needs to update the numbers using this site: https://www.sos.nh.gov/2024-democratic-presidential-primary-election-results and the date for "retrieved" at the bottom of the table "December" is also outdated. Glasperlenspieler (talk) 04:23, 27 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Looks like the numbers have been updated, but it still says "Retrieved December 7, 2023." below the table. It has to be "Retrieved January 27, 2024".
 * Also, from Bernie Sanders (write-in), downward, it has to be <0.1% not 0.1%. Someone needs to enter the "less than"-sign next to all candidates with less than 124 votes. Glasperlenspieler (talk) 08:35, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I found it myself and changed it. Glasperlenspieler (talk) 09:28, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Changing article to reflect the multiple primaries
Considering that the firehouse primary run by the NH Democratic Party on April 27 is set to determine the actual delegates New Hampshire sends to the DNC, should this article not be updated to reflect this information? Much like Nevada on the GOP side, this article should be about both primaries, with one being state-run and awarding no delegates, and the other being party-run and awarding delegates. Please consider making these changes. Spaceshuttlediscovery (talk) 21:53, 5 May 2024 (UTC)


 * The party-run primary is mentioned in the lede and in the Controversies subsection. From what I've seen, no results have been released yet, so I'm not sure if it's worth adding another infobox. David O. Johnson (talk) 03:25, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Regardless, I believe that the delegates that were awarded should be reflected somehow in the infobox and somewhere in the article. The Associated Press says that 25 Biden delegates were awarded from NH. I don't think having this information only in the controversies section is enough. Spaceshuttlediscovery (talk) 02:56, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll add another infobox that has the firehouse primary election date and indicates how many delegates will be seated. David O. Johnson (talk) 03:46, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! I appreciate it. Spaceshuttlediscovery (talk) 00:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
