The New Hampshire primary promises to be a nail-biter.
MANCHESTER, N.H. — New Hampshire Democrats will vote Tuesday in what’s become an increasingly tight primary race between Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders — but not before Donald Trump shows up to crash the party.
“On Main Street, it’s not,” he says. “What I want to see is everybody have access to primary-care physicians, to dentists, to eye doctors, to surgeons and to hospitals.” Health-care and retirement concerns are animating Democrats as they prepare to march to the polls on Tuesday, even as they acknowledge that, by some measures, the economy is in good shape.
Cheryl Towne, another Sanders supporter, says health care is “huge” in her vote and praises the senator for his student-debt proposals. Towne, a member of the State Employees’ Association/SEIU Local 1984, which endorsed Sanders, says she’s behind him “100%.” But while she agrees with Sanders on policy, denying Trump a second term is top of mind.
Maidment says Trump’s election in 2016 was like “pouring jet fuel on a fire” for consumers and businesses, and predicts that Trump will take New Hampshire in November.
