I don't think a +/- margin error makes sense when we are talking about delegate votes. Each "area" (don't know what those are called) in NH tallies it's votes to determine which candidate receives the delegate vote for that area (done for each party separately, of course). The delegate votes are then tallied for each candidate.
There is no statistical margin, there is just X number of delegates for you, Y for you, Z for you, etc. Someone please correct me if I have this process wrong in my mind......
