Kamala Harris to speak at Throwback Brewery in North Hampton, tout small business plan
PORTSMOUTH — Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to speak to supporters at Throwback Brewery in North Hampton Wednesday, a campaign official confirmed, bringing her 2024 presidential campaign to New Hampshire for the first time.
The campaign official said the time of the event was not yet being made public. The event is ticketed and at capacity.
Harris is expected to propose a tax break intended to help entrepreneurs offset the costs of starting a small business. She also plans to outline how she intends to pay for the proposal.
Harris is coming to New Hampshire after a Labor Day weekend campaign blitz visiting toss-up states like Pennsylvania and Michigan.
It is her first visit to the Granite State since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, as well as her first since April 2021, when she came to promote bipartisan jobs and infrastructure legislation. Her husband, Douglas Emhoff, visited the state on July 31 to take part in a rally promoting reproductive freedom.
Harris last visited the Seacoast in February 2019, drawing an overflow crowd to Portsmouth’s South Church as a candidate in the New Hampshire presidential primary. That year, her early popularity faded and she dropped out of the contest in December.
Now, she returns as the favorite to win the state, leading former president Donald Trump by seven points in the two latest New Hampshire polls. The state’s four electoral college votes could be important in what is expected to be a tight election in November.

Trump weighs in ahead of Harris visit to NH
Trump responded to Harris’ planned visit to the state on Truth Social, posting Harris “sees there are problems for her campaign in New Hampshire because of the fact that they disrespected it in their primary and never showed up.” Neither Harris nor Biden visited the state prior to the January presidential primary due to a dispute between New Hampshire and the Democratic National Committee regarding the state’s place in the presidential primary calendar.
“I protected New Hampshire’s First-In-The-Nation Primary and ALWAYS will!” Trump stated.
Trump last visited the state in January before the presidential primary. However, the Boston Globe reported this week Trump’s campaign is shifting its attention elsewhere because it no longer views New Hampshire as a battleground state.
A man was killed Monday in an exchange of gunfire with police in Ashland, New Hampshire, authorities said.
The office of New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella said Ashland police stopped a vehicle Monday evening on Main Street. A man in the vehicle, whose name has not been released, allegedly pulled a gun.
Officials said the man shot and wounded one police officer. The man was shot during the confrontation and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The officer is being treated at a hospital for a gunshot injury. No one else was hurt, authorities said.
Formella’s office is investigating the shooting alongside New Hampshire State Police.
The names of the officers involved in the incident will not be shared until interviews are completed, authorities said. The man killed in the shooting will be publicly identified after next of kin are notified and an autopsy is conducted.
No further information was immediately available.
Dover, New Hampshire is finally going to see something go into the old Ames Building, (same plaza as Hannaford) at 833 Central Avenue. It’s not just “something,” it’s a Community space we didn’t know we wanted.
Justin Grondahl is the owner of TRAENE Fitness & Pickleball and he’s opening one here in Dover. He has 63,000 square feet to make beautiful. Justin is the son of the co-founder of Planet Fitness that started right here in Dover, New Hampshire.
Justin spent some time with me here in the Townsquare Studios and told me everything we can expect.
You will not believe what he has in store for this place. It makes me want to move to Dover. (although it’s like my 2nd home – I’m here all. the. time.) Check out what his plans are:
- 10 indoor pickleball courts
- 3,000 Square Foot Classroom for Megaformer Pilates Classes
- 20,000 square feet of just gym equipment
- 2 Cold Plunges
- 3 Saunas, with three floors. Lots of people can fit into them
- Big Locker Rooms
- Red Light Beds
- Massage Chairs
- Massage Beds
- Tanning Booths
TRAENE Recently Added a Peptide Clinic to their Plans
If you are unfamiliar with peptides, they are chains of amino acids that help you heal injuries, build muscles and in some cases, lose weight.
After Justin told me all this, I asked if they will have food and drinks too because it was the only thing I could think of that they didn’t mention! He said, “yes, we’ll have something.”
What’s Up With the Penguin?
When Justin came into the studio, he had a TRAENE branded shirt that included a penguin. When I asked him why a Penguin, he said that it has always been his favorite animal because they are very tied to their Community. They never really leave and they are always together.

Justin is already under construction of TRAENE. He said they should be open in the Fall of 2026.
Another incredible perk of being part of the TRAENE community is they are going to pick between 10 – 15 Members of the Month who are going to get rewards like:
- Renting out a race track
- Limo service to Bruins or Celtics games, whichever the member chooses
These trips will be all paid for, all free, Justin said.
New Fitness & Pickeball Center Opening Up in the Fall of 2026 in Dover, NH
As soon as I hear about when TRAENE is opening, I’ll let you know and you and I can get our pickleball team together. Justin did say sometime in the fall, but no specific date.. yet.
