Ayotte chats with party faithful in Wolfeboro
Despite earlier reports to the contrary, cameras were indeed rolling at tonight’s Winnipesaukee GOP social gathering in Wolfeboro when former Attorney General Kelly Ayotte made her first official public appearance on the ground in New Hampshire, starting her quest for the Republican nomination for the US Senate seat being vacated by Judd Gregg.
Following an introductory speech to the gathered crowd of local Republicans, [and one by Manchester Mayor Frank Guinta, also in attendance] Ayotte spent some time mingling with people and answering some of their questions. GraniteGrok caught up with her and asked how she would have voted on elevating Justice Sotomayer to the US Supreme Court:
While that’s not the way I would have voted, I did appreciate her honesty and taking the time to answer my question. I will post her actual speech, also caught on tape, in a separate post later.
