What People Are Saying About Pete Buttigieg’s Performance at Tonight’s Debate

“Buttigieg is holding his own despite everybody coming after him tonight” ... “Buttigieg hit it out of the park with his answer on systemic racism” … ”56 seconds that will define this debate and define why @PeteButtigieg should be the next President of the United States.”...“He’s calm, he’s clear, steady, and strong.”...“@PeteButtigieg is strongest candidate to take on Trump when it comes to national security” … “Definitely the most coherent on national security tonight”

Joe Lockhart @joelockhart: Mayor Pete nailed the Commander in Chief question. The question is will people be persuaded given his experience level. He did all he could do though with a great answer

Chris Ryan @wkxlnhchris: Buttigieg is doing a masterful job of framing his candidacy against Bernie's. #fitn #nhpolitics

Naveed Jamali @NaveedAJamali I think @PeteButtigieg hit it out of the park with his answer on systemic racism. I’m also grateful he addressed what I said earlier: when drugs impacted black people we only considered enforcement, not mental illness. #DemDebates

Maria Shriver @mariashriver Damn @PeteButtigieg is smart. He’s calm, he’s clear, steady, and strong. #democraticdebate

Randi Weingarten @rweingarten Thank you @PeteButtigieg for bringing up the need to double the rate of unionization in the US. #DemDebate #AFTvotes

Charlotte Clymer @cmclymer "What I've called for is that incarceration should no longer be the response to use of drugs."-- Pete Buttigieg And he's right. #DemDebate

Paul Rieckhoff @PaulRieckhoff: This is a good issue and two strong responses from @PeteButtigieg and @JoeBiden respectively. People continue to underestimate how much of a strength it is for them as candidates to be a veteran and a Blue Star dad. They can speak from experience. And it’s very powerful.

Jeff Yarbro @yarbro: Tonight making it clear that @PeteButtigieg is strongest candidate to take on Trump when it comes to national security.

T.J. Holmes @tjholmes Buttigieg is holding his own despite everybody coming after him tonight. #demdebate

ToryDevonSmith @ToryDevonSmith: @PeteButtigieg simply has the best perspective on war than any candidate running, he has a fascinating mind and insight that I feel is completely needed in office #DemDebate #democraticdebate

Robert Murphy @robertemilem: What a beautiful and passionate defense of VP Biden from @PeteButtigieg. Buttigieg is not someone who wants to win no matter what. He is someone who will behave with honor and humanity no matter what. #DemDebate

Mike Signer @MikeSigner: @PeteButtigieg is right. He has the judgment and character to make the hard, right calls in the White House. His youth, his fresh perspective, his experience as a mayor rather than a legislator - they all add to it. They are the feature, not the big, of his appeal and his rise.

Max Burns @themaxburns: #DemDebate Rankings at the Break 1. @PeteButtigieg (TIE) 1. @BernieSanders (TIE) 2. @ewarren 3. @JoeBiden4. @AmyKlobuchar5 @AndrewYang 6. @TomSteyer

Bob Duff @senatorduff: 56 seconds that will define this debate and define why @PeteButtigieg should be the next President of the United States. @PeteForAmerica #Democrats2020 #DemDebates #FITN #NewHampshire

Noah Shachtman @NoahSchachtman I'm no Pete stan, but he is the definitely the most coherent on national security tonight.

Ben LaBolt @BenLaBolt: Hard to compete with @JoeBiden or @PeteButtigieg on these foreign policy answers.

SEIU @SEIU: Great point @PeteButtigieg! The next president must hold corporations accountable and give everyone who works the opportunity to join a union to bargain for a better life. #DemDebate #UnionsForAll

Nick Baumann: @PeteButtigieg talking about the importance of medication-assisted treatment in the Democratic primary debate. Crazy that it's been 5 years since @jasoncherkis published his groundbreaking story on MAT, and it's still a fight:

Maria Shriver @mariashriver: Amen to @petebuttigeg for talking about the lack of mental health professionals that we have in this country. We also have a lack of geriatric psychiatrists, social workers, caregivers, the list goes on… #democraticdebate

VoteVets @votevets: Trump has often ignored the recommendations of our intelligence community, putting our men and women in uniform in danger. @PeteButtigieg says they deserve a better commander-in-chief. #TeamPete #DemDebates

Omar Manejwala, M.D. @drmanejwala @PeteButtigieg mentions MAT and workforce issues! I have issues with his approach to campaigning but his is the superior policy on addiction among all candidates. Much of Yangs policy is terrible—forced treatment is not sensible.

UFCW @UFCW: .@PeteButtigieg: Americans need an economy where we:
Increase wages // Double the rate of unionization // Make corporations pay fair share // Deliver affordable healthcare & college for all families // That's how build an economy where all Americans can succeed. #DemDebate

Mayor D’Amico @ourWEHO: We cannot allow the Supreme Court to become one more political battlefield. @PeteButtigieg #PeteForAmerica

ToryDevonSmith @ToryDevonSmith @PeteButtigieg simply has the best perspective on war than any candidate running, he has a fascinating mind and insight that I feel is completely needed in office #DemDebate #democraticdebate

Christopher J. Hale @chrisjollyhale: .@PeteButtigieg is the only middle class person running for the president of the United States. His campaign is funded by tens of thousands of Americans from all walks of life who are ready for a new generation of politics in this country.

Paul Rieckhoff @PaulRieckhoff: EXCELLENT answer from @PeteButtigieg on the need to build the deepest and broadest force possible. America needs every single gun in the fight to beat Trump. Every. Single. One.

What People Are Saying About Pete Buttigieg’s Start At Tonight’s Debate

What People Are Saying About Pete Buttigieg’s Strong Start At Tonight’s Debate

“Buttigieg shows us, once again, what ‘Presidential’ looks like” … “Buttigieg is doing a masterful job of framing his candidacy against Bernie's” ... “Other candidates are scared” … “He showed real leadership” … “Buttigieg is doing a masterful job of framing his candidacy” … “Strong, clear, thoughtful answer” … “Just Gave The Perfect Answer” ... “Wow” … “Incredible” ... “Very Powerful”

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod: .@PeteButtigieg turned the Soleimani question into a Commander-in-Chief answer that was very powerful.

Karen Tumulty @ktumulty: We have "a president who has no regard for the military" -- a point @PeteButtigieg also makes very effectively on the stump. It's how he won over one Trump voter I meet in Iowa --

Ken Harbaugh @Team_Harbaugh @PeteButtigieg shows us, once again, what “Presidential” looks like. After three long years under Trump, we might have forgotten. But watching Pete’s maturity, integrity, and composure on stage at tonight's #democraticdebate reminds us what all Americans deserve in a President.

Chris Cillizza @CillizzaCNN One thing I give Buttigieg credit for: He doesn’t dodge taking punches.

Tom Abrahams @TomAbrahams13 .@PeteButtigieg on intelligence reports and military action “This is not an episode of 24.” #NHDebate

SEIU @SEIU: Great point @PeteButtigieg! The next president must hold corporations accountable and give everyone who works the opportunity to join a union to bargain for a better life. #DemDebate #UnionsForAll

Zac Petkanas @Zac_Petkanas: Wow. That answer from Mayor Pete standing up against the smears against Joe Biden. Incredible. #DemDebate

Palmer Report @PalmerReport Pete Buttigieg just gave the perfect answer about the phony Biden scandal. Pete could have gone for cheap points, but instead he showed real leadership. My opinion of Pete just went way up. #DemDebate

Maria Shriver @mariashriver: Great moment by @PeteButtigieg to @JoeBiden about his son. @JoeBiden says Lt. Col. Vindman deserves a medal, asks crowd to support him.

Kyung Lah @KyungLahCNN If you had any doubt who the front runner is, they should be gone now. @PeteButtigieg has taken incoming from everyone on stage #DemDebate

Ameshia Cross @AmeshiaCross: .@PeteButtigieg is showcasing the vast difference between his policy ideas and Bernie's. And that you can have affordable healthcare, college, etc without the polarization of plans like Medicare-for-All. #DemDebate

Christopher J. Hale @chrisjollyhale: .@PeteButtigieg is right: the Democrats need a nominee that can unite the party and persuade skeptics. My way or the highway politics is a pathway to electoral defeat against Donald Trump. #DemDebate

Max Burns @themaxburns: I can't think of a clearer summation of @PeteButtigieg's governing and campaign philosophy than "galvanize and energize, don't polarize." #DemDebate

Zach Carter @zachdcarter: Pretty clear ABC thinks this is a debate between Sanders and Buttigieg. #DemDebate

Max Burns @themaxburns: I can't think of a clearer summation of @PeteButtigieg's governing and campaign philosophy than "galvanize and energize, don't polarize." #DemDebate

Christopher J. Hale @chrisjollyhale .@PeteButtigieg is right: the American people are the final jury on the conduct and the presidency of Donald J. Trump.

Ameshia Cross @AmeshiaCross Mayor Pete is sounding hella presidential right now. He answered that experience question like a pro #DemDebate

Ashley Pratte @AshPratte It’s clear in this #DemDebate that @PeteButtigieg is the guy to take down. Other candidates are scared #nhpolitics #nhprimary

Maria Shriver @mariashriver Love that @PeteButtigieg called out the behavior at the National Prayer Breakfast. @AndrewYang says @realDonaldTrump is a symptom, not the disease. #democraticdebate

Clara Jeffery @ClaraJeffery Pete answers well on foreign policy, in general.

Sasha Pezenik @SashaPezenik: .@PeteButtigieg speaks right to that American Viewer watching at home: "It's an election year. If the Senate was the jury before, you are the jury now. The American people are the jury that'll have the final verdict on this president & the senators in the GOP who protected him."

Frank Luntz @FrankLuntz: .@PeteButtigieg is better at diffusing the Hunter Biden scandal than Hunter’s own father is. #DemDebate

Charlotte Clymer: "We're not going to let them change the subject. This is not about Hunter Biden or Vice President Biden. This is about the abuse of the president... someone who would seek to weaponize a son against his father..." -- Pete Buttigieg #DemDebate

Tara Setmayer @TaraSetmayer: Classy moment from @PeteButtigieg on defense of @JoeBiden 👏 Then, Biden telling the crowd to stand up & show support for #VindmanIsAHero was a fantastic gesture of respect for the heroism shown by a patriot.👍👏 The moderator shouldn’t have stepped on the ovation. #DemDebates

David M. Perry @Lollardfish: This is a good answer from Pete on Soleimani. #DemDebate

Caroline Connolly @CConnNBCBoston: On debate night, @PeteButtigieg gets to the heart of why he runs for office. In 2011, this Newsweek article called his hometown “a dying city.” The next year, he became Mayor to change that. Tonight, he said it is what makes his experience “unique.”

Tony Messenger @tonymess: When Mayor @PeteButtigieg talks about his military service his age doesn’t matter. He is presidential. Period. #democraticdebate

Emerge @EmergeAmerica: "What they deserve...is a president who will actually read the intelligence, pay attention to the international security situation, consult with our allies...This is not an episode of 24." - @PeteButtigieg a military veteran, on his foreign policy approach. #DemDebate #EmergeNow

Donna Howard @DonnaHowardTX “We deserve a better Commander in Chief,” @PeteButtigieg. Whichever Democratic candidate you support, this is unequivocal. #txlege

Paul Rieckhoff @PaulRieckhoff This is a good issue and two strong responses from @PeteButtigieg and @JoeBiden respectively. People continue to underestimate how much of a strength it is for them as candidates to be a veteran and a Blue Star dad. They can speak from experience. And it’s very powerful.

Robert Wolf @robertwolf32 #DemDebate fantastic response by @PeteButtigieg showing class by firmly defending the son of @JoeBiden

"We are not going to let them change the subject. This is not about Hunter Biden or Vice President Biden, or any Biden, this is about an abuse of power by the president."

Pat Ryan @PatRyanUC: Strong, clear, thoughtful answer from @PeteButtigieg re: foreign policy...it’s clear he gets the nuance of complex national security decisions, but more importantly he understands the human impacts of sending troops to war #DemDebate

Cynthia Nixon Endorses Bernie Sanders for President

Cynthia Nixon Endorses Bernie Sanders for President

WASHINGTON -- Progressive advocate, acclaimed actor and former New York gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon today endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders for President. Nixon announced her endorsement with a new video, in which she speaks about Sen. Sanders’ consistent focus on the issues that impact working families, and his unparalleled ability to galvanize voters in order to defeat Donald Trump in November.

Nixon will hit the campaign trail for Bernie 2020 this weekend, traveling to Las Vegas, Nevada where she will host a debate watch party, speak at First Friday Las Vegas alongside national surrogate Phillip Agnew, kick off canvass launches, and meet with local LGBTQ community leaders. After a packed weekend meeting with hundreds of Nevadans, Nixon will head to the Granite State to rally the vote ahead of New Hampshire’s first in the nation primary.

“What you need in a politician is someone with a vision, someone who can galvanize people, and someone who can’t be bought. And there is no one who has those three qualities in greater abundance than Bernie Sanders,” said Cynthia Nixon. “I know that Bernie is not only the candidate with the best chance to defeat Donald Trump, but also the best chance to start addressing all the things that are wrong with our country. I want Bernie because I know he’s for me, but I want Bernie even more because I know he’s for all of us.”

“As a progressive activist, candidate and life-long New Yorker, Cynthia has stood on the right side of so many issues,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders. “From resisting the influence of corporate money in our politics to advocating for equitable education, she has fought for working families. I am proud to have her in our movement to transform this country.”

In her 2018 campaign for governor of New York, Nixon refused to accept corporate contributions. Nixon’s policy agenda centered on combatting rampant income inequality, full funding for schools not jails, a Green New Deal for New York, rent control, transportation access, health care for all, reproductive rights, criminal justice reform, immigrant and disability rights, empowering voters and ending homelessness.

Cynthia Nixon is a two-time Emmy, two-time Tony, SAG and Grammy Award-winning actress, who has been nominated for four Golden Globes. A lifelong New Yorker, Nixon has been a longtime activist for better funding for public schools, abortion rights and LGBTQ equality. In 2018 Nixon ran for Governor of New York State. Her campaign successfully placed issues of racial, economic and gender inequality front and center. Nixon has been a proud union member since she began working as an actor at the age of 12 to earn money to pay for her college education. She continued to act in a variety of film, stage, and TV roles to put herself through Barnard College at Columbia University. Perhaps best known for her role as Miranda Hobbes on HBO’s hit series “Sex and the City,” Nixon received her Grammy for her role in the audio version of “An Inconvenient Truth,” the seminal book warning about the dangers of climate change. Nixon made her directorial debut at The New Group with Joel Johnson's “Rasheeda Speaking,” which received Lucille Lortel, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle nominations. Nixon has appeared in over forty stage productions, a dozen on Broadway, and will be seen next in Ryan Murphy’s RATCHED on Netflix and in Julian Fellowes’ GILDED AGE on HBO. She and her wife Christine have three sons: Sam, Charlie and Max.

Nashua Alderman-at-Large Dave Tencza endorses Deval Patrick for President

Following CNN Town Hall Nashua Alderman-at-Large Dave Tencza endorses Deval Patrick for President

NASHUA, NH — Today, Nashua Alderman-at-large Dave Tencza endorsed former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick’s candidacy for President. Tencza is serving his first term as Alderman-at-large and has been involved with Democratic politics in New Hampshire since 2010.

“Deval Patrick has defied the odds every step of the way, as the first person in his family to go to college, as a civil rights attorney, and as the second black governor to be elected in the history of the United States,”  said Alderman-at-large Dave Tencza. “Nashua residents should know that Deval Patrick is about more than just rhetoric, he has the strongest record of delivering results out of all the candidates in this race. Beyond defeating Donald Trump, we need someone to bring our country back together, and that’s why I’m proud to be endorsing Deval Patrick for president.”

“I am honored and excited to have the support of one of Nashua’s most dedicated and active Democrats,” said Governor Deval Patrick. “As an Alderman-at-Large, Dave has fought hard to make Nashua and New Hampshire a better place for working families to live. He has also has an impressive record as a Democratic leader in his community, helping to deliver city-wide majorities and restoring Democratic control the mayor’s office. As a leader in his community in more ways than one, I am proud to receive his endorsement.”

In addition to serving on the Board of Alderman, Tencza has also been the chair of the Nashua Democratic City from 2010 - 2015 and was elected again as chair of the committee in 2017. Any endorsement from Tencza is his personal choice and does not represent the position of the Nashua Democratic City Committee.

Governor Patrick just wrapped up a six-day New Hampshire bus tour with over 20 events in more than a dozen towns that included a meeting with the Nashua Democrats on Monday. Since announcing for president, Governor Patrick has spent more time and held more events in New Hampshire than any candidate in this race. He has also been endorsed by State Senator David Watters of Dover.

Sestak to Campaign for Klobuchar in New Hampshire

MANCHESTER, NH — Former Presidential candidate and Congressman, Admiral Joe Sestak today endorsed Senator Amy Klobuchar for President. He cited Klobuchar’s experience, ability to unite the country, and understanding of global leadership as the reasons why she is best qualified to serve as Commander in Chief.

"We need a nominee with a depth and breadth of experience to govern effectively, a proven track record of winning in red and blue districts and states so we can unite this country again, and an understanding of the need to rebuild our global leadership so we can convene the world to tackle the defining challenges of our time. It's why I ran for President last year - and having seen her on the campaign trail and observed her work in the Senate, it's why I know Amy Klobuchar is uniquely qualified to be President. I'm proud to endorse her," said Admiral and former Congressman and Presidential candidate Joe Sestak.

Sestak will campaign for Senator Klobuchar in New Hampshire throughout the weekend, where he’ll host events at veteran’s organizations throughout the Granite State. His endorsement comes as a recent poll found Senator Amy Klobuchar surging in New Hampshire with just days until the primary. In the new Monmouth poll, Klobuchar has jumped seven points since September to 9%. According to the poll, “In a race restricted to the top five polling candidates, the race tightens to 17% Biden, 13% Warren, and 13% Klobuchar.”
