DATE: SEPTEMBER 8, 2020 
SUBJECT: NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY RESULTS
NH-01: Chris Pappas (D) vs. Matt Mowers (R)  

New Hampshire’s First Congressional District is a perennial swing district and represents a prime pickup opportunity for Republicans in 2020. Democrat Chris Pappas has failed to deliver the bipartisan results he promised New Hampshire voters in 2018. Pappas has voted with Nancy Pelosi 99% of the time, supporting Washington Democrats’ insane socialist agenda which includes passing legislation to give their campaigns $5 million in public funds, voting to raise taxes on hardworking Americans by 20% and backing efforts to free violent criminals from prison including rapists and murderers. Matt Mowers is a former State Department official who has seen firsthand the devastation Democrats’ socialist policies can create for everyday people and will deliver a stark contrast with Pappas’ far-left liberal record.
