Santorum (barely) moves to 4th/Updated
Rick Santorum pulled into 4th place in NH, just ahead of Newt Gingrich, around 9:45 p.m.
With 57% reporting, he led Gingrich by 85 votes.
UPDATE: Santorum hit the stage just before 10 p.m. to deliver his N.H. farewell & S.C. greeting, hitting on his usual themes of family and economic prosperity. "We have an opportunity to be the true conservative . . . who can go out and do what's necessary not just to win this race -- we can win this race -- but to be the conservative who understands the foundation of our country are institutions that are crucial for us to be a successful nation."
UPDATE 10:14 pm. Gingrich moves back into 4th with 69% reporting, by 51 votes.

Thanks for reading, everybody. Much more to come throughout the year.
