New Hampshire
Will New Hampshire independents swing for Harris?
HANOVER, N.H. (WCAX) – Kamala Harris stumped for votes in the Granite State Wednesday making a stop in the Portsmouth area.
New Hampshire is considered a purple state with the latest presidential polls leaning slightly towards Harris. But, the experts say her campaign is not taking anything for granted. They also say the national Democratic party’s decision to skip over New Hampshire during the primary did not sit well with many New Hampshire voters.
“I think this is a fence-mending trip and it probably needs to happen. But secondly, I think Hillary Clinton learned the hard way that neglecting a state that you think is in your camp can be very costly,” said Linda Fowler, a political science professor at Dartmouth College.
Hillary Clinton just barely squeaked out a victory over Trump in New Hampshire in 2016. However, Joe Biden won the state by a much wider margin in 2020.
