And Mitt Romney is the first Republican -- 76 to win the first -- nominating contests.

In the nomination race Fox News projects the former Massachusetts governor will win the New Hampshire -- after winning the Iowa Caucuses.

And the win tonight is projected to be significant at this point we just don't know how large the spread will be.

Fox News is also projecting at this hour that Ron Paul will finish in second place in this race governor Jon Huntsman will finish third.

Meantime Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum are locked in a race for fourth place at this hour with that contest too close to call.

But Fox News can't project that Rick Perry will finish in sixth place.

We'll of course win his party's contest.

Here in New Hampshire.
