Political and news junkies take note: Google mapped the results of yesterday’s New Hampshire U.S. presidential primary by candidate and county for both parties. There are also videos from YouTube of candidate victory or concession speeches. According to the Google LatLong blog, the results were presented last night in real time. You can also see the same results in Google Earth (screenshots below).

Google has not formally made a commitment to do this for the rest of the presidential primaries, but it’s both interesting and valuable. Accordingly, I would imagine we’ll see this same data for the remaining primaries and for the general election in November.
