What: The New Hampshire primary. When: January 10, 2012. Analysis: The Iowa caucuses turned out to have quite a dramatic finish, with a mere eight votes separating the first place Mitt Romney and second place Rick Santorum. Ron Paul finished a disappointed third, followed by Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, John Huntsman and Michelle Bachmann. Following her last place finish, Bachmann dropped out of the race, leaving only six GOP candidates left to compete in New Hampshire.
