Hi John,
Last week, we we took the first official step on our historic path
toward the White House — Joe visited the New Hampshire State House to
file for the First-in-the-Nation primary!
It was amazing for Joe and the team to be there in-person — it puts
a fine point on why we're standing up and fighting and we wanted to
make sure you also got an inside look!

and added our campaign slogan: BE BRAVE!

Here are some
photos of Joe at the visitors center, where he left some of our
campaign swag, and upstairs at the Secretary of State's office. We'll
be adding more!

New Hampshire Union Leader: GOP hopeful Walsh gets in, says
Trump can be beat
Former Illinois Republican Congressman and radio talk show host Joe
Walsh said he can win over conservative voters who are “sick and
tired” of President Trump’s antics.
“I do think there is an opportunity to beat him; I really believe
it,” said Walsh who stepped down from hosting his syndicated radio
talk show when he announced two months ago he would run for the White
House.
Walsh said he aims to appear on all the primary ballots that do not
award all the delegates to the top vote-getting candidate as Arkansas
and Alabama do.
“In New Hampshire, Republicans are p---ed off about the fact that
five other states have canceled primaries. Try that in New Hampshire,
try that in Iowa and see how far you get,” Walsh said.
Ushered into office in the Tea Party election to the U.S. House in
2010, Walsh lost his seat after the Democratically-led Legislature
changed his district to make it more difficult for a Republican to
win.
WMUR: Republican Walsh, challenging Trump, files for NH primary
ballot
Former U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois, challenging President
Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, filed for the
New Hampshire primary ballot Thursday, calling the president unfit for
office.
“This isn’t about any issue. I wouldn’t think about doing this if
it wasn’t Donald Trump. He is a danger to this country. We have to do
better.”
Walsh said that the nation’s infrastructure “is falling apart,”
while “the border is a mess, the debt is – nothing will get done as
long as Trump is president. That’s why I’m in this.”
