Independent Voters Launch Ad Campaign
in New Hampshire
Print and Radio Versions Carry Message About Which Presidential Candidates Reached Out to Independents
Ad States: “It’s Not Just About Ending the War.
It’s About Ending Partisanship.”
New York, NY—Independent voters launched an ad campaign in New Hampshire this week with ads appearing in print and on radio across the state. The campaign was co-sponsored by the New Hampshire Committee for an Independent Voice (“NH-CIV”), part of the IndependentVoting.org network created by The Committee for a Unified Independent Party (“CUIP”)—a national association of independent voters.
Today’s Nashua Telegraph contains a full page edition of the ad (p. 22). The ad will run tomorrow in the Portsmouth Herald and in upstate papers on Friday. The ad is also on running the radio stations of: WCCM, WKXL, WGIR and WKBK featuring Betty Ward, Concord school teacher and Russ Ouellette, a Bedford business consultant.
The ad describes which presidential candidates have reached out to independents and encourages voters this into account when voting next Tuesday.
The ad also reminds NH independents that they can re-declare their status as independents upon exiting the polling site. Attempts by both Democratic and Republican controlled NH legislatures to limit independent’s long standing right to do so, were turned back by the lobbying efforts of NH-CIV in 2005 and 2007.
