What happened in New Hampshire

Donald Trump resoundingly won the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary, giving the billionaire mogul his first victory in an improbable and brash campaign that already has turned American politics upside down. On the Democratic side, Sen. Bernie Sanders scored a decisive victory in Tuesday’s New Hampshire presidential primary, embarrassing Hillary Clinton in a state she won eight years ago and upending the Democratic nominating contest.

MANCHESTER, N.H. (Feb. 9, 2016) — Donald J. Trump and Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont harnessed working-class fury on Tuesday to surge to commanding victories in a New Hampshire primary that drew a huge turnout across the state.

The success by two outsider candidates dealt a remarkable rebuke to the political establishment, and all but guaranteed protracted, bruising races for each party’s presidential nomination.

Highlights of this article:

“Together we have sent a message that will echo from Wall Street to Washington, from Maine to California,” Mr. Sanders said. “And that is that the government of our great country belongs to all of the people, and not just a handful of wealthy campaign contributors and their ‘super PACs.’ ”

“While Mr. Sanders led New Hampshire polls for the last month, and Mr. Trump was ahead here since July, the wave of support for both men was nonetheless stunning to leaders of both parties who believed that in the end, voters would embrace more experienced candidates like Mrs. Clinton or one of the Republican governors in the race. Yet the two men won significant support from voters who felt betrayed by their parties and were dissatisfied or angry with the federal government.”

“Clinton advisers gritted their teeth Tuesday night as they dissected exit polls and other data to try to fathom the depth of Mrs. Clinton’s political vulnerabilities. One troubling sign: Mr. Sanders was the choice, nearly unanimously, among voters who said it was most important to have a candidate who is “honest and trustworthy.”Several advisers to Mrs. Clinton said they were especially concerned about her shakier-than-expected support among women — the group that provided her margin for victory in the 2008 New Hampshire primary. The Clinton strategy depends on her beating Mr. Sanders among women and attracting large numbers of minority voters, like Hispanics in Nevada and African-Americans in South Carolina. Those states hold the next Democratic contests, later this month.”

Bernie Sander’s Campaign Requested to Put City and State on Podium Signs

20160204_0545 Bernie Podium Sign Request v1.jpg WASHINGTON (Feb. 4, 2016) — In an effort to better archive the many speeches Senator Bernie Sanders has been giving on his campaign for President 2016, a request has been made to have his podium campaign signs include the city and state on them.

“There are many, many video’s out there of Bernie’s speeches,” said Daryl, a Sanders supporter. “Not having the city and state written on his podium signs causes confusion and a lack of attention to particular speeches of notable mention.”

Daryl points out that from the start, Republican candidate Donald Trump has had the city and state written on his podium signs making it very clear as to where he is speaking from.

“Republican candidate Donald Trump’s signs had had the city and state on them from the start,” said Daryl. “If the Sander’s campaign would just have this little bit of information on their podium signs, it would make tracking the speeches more accurate and less time consuming.”

Daryl later added that he thought the Sander’s campaign was merely trying to cut costs by not customizing their podium signs for each location on the campaign trial.

“I bet there must be some kind of expense conservation going on here,” Daryl said. “But what good is saving a couple of bucks if people can’t follow your current or past speeches without loosing interest and getting frustrated trying to find the right video.”

It may just be too much work to keep up with preparing dedicated signs for each of the different locations Sanders plans to speak at along the campaign trail.

And if there are any changes to any of the event locations, then a new sign would have to be printed on the fly.

Having to print and have delivered a special sign for each venue may add too much to the campaigns expense budget, and which may have prompted their using the same sign for each podium along the campaign trail.

With the price of color printers have gone down over the years, you would think this would not be a problem for the Sander’s campaign which has boasted record donations in the last quarter upwards of $20M.

Only time will tell if the Sander’s campaign will upgrade their podium signs.

“His speeches are so moving and are already part of history,” Daryl said. “You never know which one of those speeches will be responsible for realizing the political revolution he so eloquently has been advocating for.”
