House Speaker Boehner Campaigns in New Hampshire for Mitt Romney

Derry, New Hampshire
Monday, October 8, 2012

House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) campaigned on behalf of Mitt Romney in New Hampshire today.  Speaker Boehner spoke with volunteers at the Mitt Romney for President campaign office in Derry. 

New Hampshire is considered a swing state in the 2012 presidential election.  In the last two elections, New Hampshire has gone Democratic, but with slim margins: Pres. Obama won the state in 2008 with 54% of the vote, while Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) won by only 1% in 2004.   

A recent Granite State poll has Pres. Obama leading in the state 52% to 37% over Mitt Romney.
