In a feisty social media post, Republican Governor Chris Sununu of New Hampshire made it clear that his state will not be bullied by President Joe Biden and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Despite the DNC’s attempt to extend the deadline for New Hampshire to comply with their nominating calendar, Governor Sununu remained defiant, stating that his state will hold the first presidential primary regardless of what the president thinks.
The DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee unanimously approved the extension, insisting that New Hampshire needed to change its voting laws in order to secure the second primary position. However, New Hampshire law mandates that the Republican and Democratic primaries be held on the same date and that the state must be the first primary. Failure to comply with these demands could result in the Democratic National Convention invalidating New Hampshire’s delegates and even potentially leaving President Biden off the ballot.
Despite the pressure from the DNC, Governor Sununu refused to back down, emphasizing that New Hampshire will stand its ground and won’t allow arbitrary demands and deadlines to dictate its primary schedule. It’s clear that the governor is not afraid to take on President Biden and the DNC, showcasing his unwavering commitment to the people of New Hampshire and their democratic process.
New Hampshire will not comply with the arbitrary demands and deadlines coming from @JoeBiden and the @DNC.
We will not back down.
New Hampshire will be going first whether Joe Biden likes it or not. https://t.co/qp4ISXYFvY
