ALBAWABA - America just witnessed its first-ever six registered voters in the upcoming 2024 US elections from a small town in New Hampshire called Dixville Notch. 

Unlike in 2020, where the former president received zero votes from Dixville Notch, Donald Trump is going head-to-head against current Vice President Kamala Harris in a tie with the two receiving three votes each.

One user wrote, "They all voted for Joe Biden back in 2020... What's happening."

Another added, "There's no way only one family lives there, and yet we still tied against Trump".

Other users on Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter) were also wondering how the people from Dixville Notch were able to vote so early, to which someone replied that it's a tradition from decades ago.

According to CNN, the tiny New Hampshire community of Dixville Notch has a decades-old tradition where the town opens and closes its poll after midnight compared to other areas in the country where polls are expected to start closing at the 7 p.m. mark.

The tradition in question showcases early results compared to other areas in the US.
