January Action of the Month
Ron Paul just came in 2nd in the NH Republican Primary and the New Hampshire Democratic Primary (due to write-in votes.) Four years ago, Ron Paul received around 8% of the votes in the NH Republican Primary. This time he received nearly three times that amount and even received more votes than President Obama. Ron Paul historically does better in caucus states and the campaign focused much more on Iowa. In fact, over 300 official youth volunteers joined the IA campaign; whereas, only 100 official youth volunteers joined the NH campaign. Despite all of that, Ron Paul did better in NH than IA. Why? Much of the difference was due to the more libertarian culture in NH and the actions of Free State Project participants living in NH. Love or hate Ron Paul, it is clear that FSPers have the ability to even affect national races in NH.
Do you know any people that like Ron Paul in your area? Please tell them about how well Ron Paul did in NH. Please tell them that Ron Paul is surging right now in South Carolina because of his success in NH. Ron Paul may not become president. If that happens, people should know about how well Ron Paul did in NH. It is yet another reason for some people to consider joining the FSP and moving to NH.
Edited to include a couple of excellent resourced to point people to when you are telling people how wonderful Ron Paul did in NH.
