Video from my WMUR interview.

Earlier this month, I appeared on WMUR's "Close Up" alongside NHYD President Garth Corriveau, Merrimack Young Democratic Candidate Andy Sylvia, and several young Republicans. Below is the video of the first segment, which includes my interview.

Letter to the Concord Monitor

On Thursday, the Concord Monitor ran an editorial entitled "Survey says...well what exactly does it say?", focusing on how political polling is easily manipulated and can be a detriment to our political process.

I wrote a Letter to the Editor in response, which ran today. Some excerpts:

The incredible over-saturation of polling, most of which has questionable accuracy and implication, does a grave disservice to the American people.
...
When polling can be made to say anything, our leaders are afraid to do anything bold, and we lose the ability to bring about change.
...
Leadership isn't about bending to perceived public will or trying to manipulate people into agreeing; a true leader inspires people to follow him/her. That is precisely what has been missing from the political process.
