The Democratic primary shifts now to New Hampshire. Sen. Michael Bennet, still a longshot, has been there for some time.
As party officials in Iowa struggled Monday to report results from that state’s Democratic caucuses, Sen. Michael Bennet was busy planning yet another event in New Hampshire, where he will soon hit his 50th town hall meeting.
“It’s been tough from the very beginning,” Bennet said from the driver’s seat of a rented minivan on a recent swing through the state. His crowds have grown in recent months. But, still, his best showings in any poll have been two recent New Hampshire surveys that both had him at 2%. A determined focus on an early-state electorate, at least for a candidate lacking an established national profile and fundraising network, seems a less viable strategy this year than it might have been a generation ago. Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s staying power among the top tier of candidates offers this election cycle’s chief exception to the rule.
George Bruno, a former ambassador who attended the event and remained undecided, came away impressed. “I appreciate his intellect and temperament, and I think he’d be a fine president,” he said.“He’s very aware of the problems that are facing the country in a realistic way,” said Rita Broderick of Manchester, who’s also undecided and considering Bennet. “He certainly deserves to be in that upper tier.
