Trump, Harris split 6 votes cast in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, as Election Day kicks off

Election Day kicked off with a tie as Donald Trump and Kamala Harris split the six votes cast in a tiny New Hampshire town with a tradition of counting its ballots just after midnight.

The Republican ex-president and the Democratic vice president nabbed three votes each in the hamlet of Dixville Notch, which has been carrying on the midnight voting custom since 1960.

The final vote tally at Dixville Notch is a dramatic shift from the 2020 election, when Joe Biden swept the town’s vote, winning all 5 votes before taking the state by a 7% margin.

Hillary Clinton also won the Dixville Notch vote in the 2016 presidential election.

Tuesday’s results out of Dixville Notch align with national polls that have shown Trump, 78, and Harris, 60, locked in a tight race.

The final poll commissioned by The Post ahead of Election Day found that two presidential candidates were in a virtual tie — with both receiving 49% support among likely voters.

On Sunday, Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance predicted a Trump victory in the Granite State, telling voters during a rally in Derry that the campaign is “expanding the map.”

“I believe that in two days we’re going to turn New Hampshire red and make Donald Trump the next president of the United States,” the Ohio senator declared.

The last Republican presidential candidate to win New Hampshire was George W. Bush in 2000, who went on to defeat Al Gore to take the White House.

Dixville Notch’s voting tradition is possible due to the state’s electoral laws that allow municipalities with less than 100 residents to open polls at midnight and close when all registered voters cast their ballots.

Polling stations in most states across the country open at 6 or 7 a.m. on Election Day.
