MANCHESTER, NH – Voters have a few chances this week to hear from Republican candidate Rand Paul – including a dueling campaign event Friday in Hollis that coincides with a Jeb Bush rally right down the road.
On Jan. 16 you can catch a Stand with Rand Town Hall closer to home, here in Manchester at the Alpine Club, 175 Putnam St. Doors open at 9 a.m., photo line at 9:30 a.m., and program begins at 9:45 a.m.
If you’re not a morning person, you can attend the Jan. 15 Stand with Rand Paul Town Hall in Hollis at Lawrence Barn Community Center, 28 Depot Road. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with the event starting at 7 p.m.
And if you are still on the fence about who you are voting for, or leaning more toward Jeb Bush, you might want to head over to the Alpine Grove Banquet Facility on Friday instead, just three miles down the road, at 19 South Depot Road, Route 111A in Hollis, for a Jeb Bush Town Hall. Event also starts at 7 p.m.
Currently Bush is polling ahead of Paul according to recent poll analyses, although due to Paul’s current standings, he has been denied a presence in the Jan. 14 scheduled GOP debate. On Wednesday, Paul blamed the GOP establishment for costing him a podium on the main stage. Carly Fiorina also did not make the cut and will be in the “undercard” debate preceding the main debate.
“They have been saying for months they’re going to narrow the field, but I don’t think it’s the job of the establishment in the Republican Party to decide who is and who isn’t [in],” Paul said on MSNBC’s Jan. 13 “Morning Joe,” as reported by The Hill.
Paul reportedly said that decision may cost the GOP the libertarian vote.
Confirmed candidates for the Charleston, SC, debate: Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Marco Rubio, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, N.J. Gov. Chris Christie, Ohio Gov. John Kasich.
Paul was invited to the undercard debate at 6 p.m., along with Fiorina, Mike Huckabee, and Rick Santorum.
