14. Sometimes NH feels like a maverick though obviously not always
In 2000 Gore went from a 2 to 1 thrashing of Bradley in IA to a tight 4 pt win over him in NH. Same with McCain and Bush though McCain basically wrote off Iowa.
96 & 80 don't count because of incumbents (even though Kennedy ran against Carter, his NH results are tainted by his prox) & 92 was uncontested. Though in 92 they took a chance on a young then scandal plagued candidate.
In 1988, Dukakis finished 3rd in IA and took 1st in NH.
