Presidential candidates prepare for New Hampshire vote

By Katie Knapp

Omaha, NE – The Democrat and Republican Presidential candidates are preparing for the first in the nation New Hampshire primary Tuesday. NPR Political Editor Ken Rudin tells Omaha Public Radio that Iowa's winners, Senator Barack Obama and Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, aren't guaranteed victory in New Hampshire. Rudin says the voting bloc in New Hampshire is entirely different than Iowa, with more Independent and moderate Republican voters. He expects a clear Democrat and Republican Presidential nominee will emerge February Sixth--the day after Super Tuesday--unless multiple candidates win multiple primaries.
