This place was the inspiration for a West Wing episode called "Hartsfield Landing."

The weird thing about that episode is that they describe how the town does their primary tradition at midnight, except it's between Bartlet and Ritchie who have both already secured their party's nomination. And in the episode, they make a big deal about how they have correctly predicted the winner of every presidential election. Even with an open primary, that doesn't make a lot of sense.
