pjosh: i' m not sure they expected pthis to occur a year ago. phillary clinton started her pcampaign very slowly on a bit of pa listening tour. pthey thought there was no one pout there that could really beat pthem. pobviously that strategy was pturned on its ear by bernie psanders mania. pbecause no one would expect, pjust like on the republican side p, no one would have expected pdonald trump or bernie sanders pto emerge like they did. psuddenly she found herself in a pbattle with bernie sanders. pyou have to credit the campaign pfor not giving up on new phampshire. pa lot of people told the clinton pcampaign, that state is lost. pfight it out in iowa. pwhen that is move on to south pcarolina because there' s nothing pto be gained by staying in new phampshire because bernie sanders phad too much of a leap. pbut you came anyway -- she came panyway. pjeanne shaheen, governor maggie phillary clinton here, but the panti-establishment fervor is out pthere on the side of bernie psanders. pjennifer: with bernie sanders pwith a narrow loss to clinton

pjosh: it comes down to getting pthe vote out. pthe trick is to be translated pinto huge rallies and getting pthose guys to the polls. pas we saw in iowa, it doesn' t palways translate to election day pcount. pchris christie, john kasich and pjeb bush, this is about porganizing their ground game, pidentifying their core support pout and vote. pthere are a lot on the prepublican side who will take a psecond look. ptom: republican presidential pcandidate donald trump had his pfamily by his side for tonight' s pfile rally in new hampshire with phis family by his side. pwmur' s jean mackin was at the pverizon wireless arena for the pevent, and joins us live now. pjean: crews are breaking down pthe stage right now. pdonald trump brought his family pup there with him for his final pnew hampshire rally here at the pverizon wireless arena in pmanchester. phe thanked the crowd for making pit out in the snow assured them pit would end and ask them to get pto the polls tomorrow while he ptouched on themes like building pa wall, immigration,

pjosh: we have seen the snow pbeginning in some areas of psoutheastern new hampshire in articular and those are the pareas we are looking to see the pmost snow. pletter amounts for the to the pnorthwest. pwe will zoom in and take a look pat what to expect. pthese areas around the mass-new phampshire border, from ortsmouth to the dover areas pand almost manchester, plondonderry area, 5-8 inches. pthis includes over to the west pwe are at probably 5-8 inches. pit begins to fall just a little pbut because it is 5-8 inches, a plot of terrain will have to do pwith this. pyou are farther away from the pstorm center so the amounts drop poff just a bit. palso, the air is an drier and pless of the snow can make it pdown in. pit really dries out as it goes pover the mountains and down the pother side. pthat shadowing effect is pexpected to play a main factor pin areas far west of the pconnecticut river valley and arts of northern new hampshire pas well be we will look a closer pminutes. perin: all right, and member that pwhen winter weather hits, you pcan stay tuned to news 9. pup-to-date infor
