This is leaking through the internet right now:
"Decision Desk HQ Voter Survey
We’ve decided to hold our topline results until 7pm Eastern time due to some uncertainly regarding New Hampshire’s election laws and exit polling. Here are some teasers until then:
Democrats:
Hillary Clinton is performing strongest with voters over 75 years old.
Bernie Sanders is seeing Kim Jong-un level support among millennials.
Republicans:
Marco Rubio and Chris Christie are doing about the same with Independents, but Rubio is doing about twice as well with Republicans.
Kasich is doing twice as well with Independents as Republicans.
Trump is performing slightly better with Republicans than Independents.
A majority of Jeb Bush’s voters are female thus far. "

Just as it has in Scotland this will kill rural pubs. Alcohol sales from pubs fell 60% after the limit was reduced there.0 -
Of course you can and then those people will be over the limit and not reporting trace blood alcohol. However you can have trace amounts even if you haven't overindulged and are perfectly safe to drive.williamglenn said:
You can have a lot more than trace amounts the morning after if you've overindulged. A lot of people should think twice before driving in that state.Philip_Thompson said:0 -

Or how many are killed by people "just under" the current limit (but over the proposed new limit)? Even fewer I suspect.SeanT said:How many people are now actually run over and killed by people "just over" the limit?
I'd hazard a guess it's somewhere around zero. So this new, more draconian policy will save no people.
Britain has some of the safest roads in the world (which is good). But if people are still being mowed down by drunken murdering fools, it is because these irresponsible, uninsured bastards just don't give a fuck, and would drink three bottles of vodka, then drive, kill a kid, and drive on, so what.
This tightening won't deter them, any more than the present laws do. I fail to see the logic.0 -

Terrible.
What about the God-given right to drive around a public road after consuming intoxicating drugs.
Brexit will probably save the UK from drink driving laws too.0 -

Perhaps those just on the limit will have the choice of a Drink Driving awareness course to avoid a ban? Just like those for Speeding.

Driving whilst under the influence of drugs, both illegal and prescription is probably a greater threat now. I dread driving when the tranq'd up school run mums are out and about.0 -

Indeed, it will just hurt normal people with draconian punishments for being slightly over the limit - banned from driving and punitive insurance later - while the real culprits won't give a F.
Having children distracting you in the car can be just as dangerous.
And I speak as someone who avoids alcohol entirely when I drive.

Apparently we're all supposed to be drowning our sorrows at home in splendid isolation. God forbid we go out and actually meet other people for a couple of pints. We're going to lose more of our local boozers, which is a great shame (though why I care, I've no idea - I don't drink anymore).Richard_Tyndall said:

You know the cause of the 2015 polling debacle? The fact that the poll panel participants were more politically engaged than non-respondents and so, even after weighting, they were still not representative of the voting population?
So, we know that that method is flawed and the polling organisations are struggling to cope with this (so much, the ICM guy is tearing his hair out). We know that, right?
So anybody rolling out a new large-scale panel polling application must be really stupid, right?
Right?

"Preliminary results find some support for two of Trump’s more controversial proposals. Two-thirds of New Hampshire GOP voters favor temporarily banning Muslims who are not U.S. citizens from entering the country and four in 10 say undocumented immigrants should be deported.
In terms of candidate attributes, desire for a candidate who “shares my values” or “can bring needed change” are cited most often, followed by one who “tells it like it is.” Preference for a candidate who can win in November trails far behind.
Among the top six candidates in New Hampshire, many more say Trump would best handle the economy and an international crisis alike, followed by John Kasich on the economy and a log jam among Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, John Kasich and Chris Christie on an international crisis.
Half of Republican primary voters in New Hampshire say they’d be satisfied with Trump as the eventual nominee, vs. about four in 10 for Rubio and Cruz alike."0 -
