Presidential candidate Marianne Williamson is in New Hampshire through March 13, campaigning in the state that has traditionally started the voting in elections for president over the last century.
After he got zero of the 33 delegates the state sent to the 2020 nominating convention, President Joe Biden prevailed upon the national Democratic Party to remove New Hampshire as the location of the nation’s first presidential primary.
The challenger says that while the incumbent is trying to help people who are struggling with a rigged economy and political establishment that is often adverse to the interests of working people, she is seeking to change the system itself and that revolutionary approach is getting positive responses from citizens in New Hampshire, one of the original 13 colonies, has participated in all 59 presidential elections through 2020.
The independent nature of New Hampshire voters leads it to be considered a battleground state in most election cycles, although it has voted Democratic in all but one election since 1992.
“I don’t think the New Hampshire people are going to let this go easily,” said Democratic strategist James Carville, who noted the importance of the state, recalling that former Vice President Al Gore would have been president if he had won New Hampshire during the 2000 election.
Pointing out that former presidents Clinton and Obama, as well as President Biden, each lost New Hampshire in their initial runs for the Democratic nomination, Carville hinted that Biden might survive backlash from Democratic voters in the state should they opt to support Marianne Williamson or rumored candidate Robert Kennedy Jr.
“Marianne Williamson will be speaking with voters, local activists, party officials, and state representatives about the issues that most affect the Granite State and the rest of the nation, and that could really boost her appeal around the nation,” said Lisa McCormick, a New Jersey progressive who said the insurgent Democrat should not be ignored by citizens or the media.
