Nearly 60,000 people voted Tuesday in the Democratic presidential primary in New Hampshire, and 246 of them chose John Wolfe, a Chattanooga attorney and four-time congressional candidate.

Wolfe nabbed 0.4 percent of the vote with 99 percent of precincts reporting, according to The Associated Press.

President Barack Obama won, scoring 82 percent and 48,855 votes.

Wolfe branded himself as the more progressive alternative to the president. He finished ninth out of 14 candidates, all of whom were required to be registered Democrats and pay a $1,000 filing fee.

Wolfe, who unsuccessfully ran for Congress in 1998, 2002, 2004 and 2010, did not return a phone call seeking comment.
