CONCORD, NH – July 29, 2022 – In the race for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate, businessman and political outsider, Vikram Mansharamani, is the first primary candidate to launch a television ad buy. Buoyed by the campaign’s strong donor fundraising, the ad hit the airwaves yesterday.
The Lincoln resident is shown in the 30-second spot - entitled “Businessman, Not a Politician” - asserting his unique and varied qualifications to be New Hampshire’s next Senator. This buy only serves to emphasize why key N.H. political analysts have claimed this race to be a
jump ball.
“I am not a career politician and I haven’t spent my life looking for some office for which to run. I am a businessman and I have spent my career in the real world helping entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 companies create jobs."
"I am not running because I want a fancy title or position; I am running because I want to do something for New Hampshire,” said Mansharamani. “My campaign is picking up support all across the Granite State because the voters of New Hampshire agree that the career politicians have destroyed our economy and only a businessman can fix it.”
The text of the ad follows:
Politicians care more about being someone then doing something…not me.
I’m a first-generation American. The son of two working-class immigrants. I pumped gas at my dad’s station and flipped burgers.
Got scholarships to Yale and MIT. Wrote a book about economics. Earned my CDL to learn about trucking. Traveled the world, saw the threat posed by China. Some magazine even said something nice about me! [GRAPHIC - Worth: 100 Most Powerful People in Global Finance]
I'm a businessman, not a politician.
“And you have a lovely wife and kids too.” – Kristen Mansharamani
I’m Vikram Mansharamani and I approve this message, because I’m not worried about being someone, I want to do something for the people of New Hampshire.
