I'm sorry to have to interrupt you, but we have an important projection to make NBC

News at this hour.

It is 811 PM in the East Coast. Pulls been closed for 11-and-a-half minutes and

NBC News can now project that the winner of the New Hampshire Republican primary is

Donald Trump. Earlier the projection had been that it was too early to call

but that Trump was in the lead 11 minutes after poll closing Trump has been

projected the winner.

Steve, it does, forgive me for interrupting you there,

but that's the only reason I would.

That does, I mean, it seemed like all the, everything

that you were coming up with.

When you were talking about those benchmark numbers you had in mind for

Nicky Haley that was about her pulling on a win and not hitting those benchmarks

in in town after town after town pretty much all telling that same story.

Yeah exactly and so now I think really the question town pretty much all telling that same story. Yeah, exactly.

And so now I think really the question for Haley becomes,

you guys have started talking about this.

It's that, what can she take and say, it's not a win but it's progress it gets me to South Carolina what

and I don't know what to my eyes it's at the very minimum she wants to keep this in

single digits right and so right now you see Trump with a margin of eight points right there.

And again, Nashua, you know, almost 100,000 people in Nashua.

She could win Nashua.
