What's important to you, John?

John – it's important for us to know what issues are top of mind for you and your family. That's why we're coming to you now.  One of the best ways for us to gather data is through online surveys, so we know what Granite Staters want Joyce to fight for. Will you please take our survey by 11:59 PM t…

Here’s the truth →

John, this is important and we want you to know the truth.   Since Joyce launched her campaign, she has been endorsed by over 230 New Hampshire leaders, she has earned the support of the Teamsters and New Hampshire Building Trades, and she has a growing network of grassroots supporters like you.

My wife, Joyce >>

Hey there, it's Mike Craig, Joyce's husband of 29 years. We grew up together, went to prom together, graduated from the University of New Hampshire, and raised three great kids together. We've also gone through seven campaigns together. Now, I’m standing by her side as she runs for governor. Campai…

we’ve got work to do 🗳️

John – National Voter Registration Day was this week, and I urge you to treat every day like it's an opportunity to register yourself and others to vote.  The right to vote is fundamental to our democracy. It's what our nation was built upon.   With the future of New Hampshire on the ballot in 2024,…

Kevin Cavanaugh will continue leading Manchester forward

a crisp New England morning

John – I'm getting an early start on this crisp New England day. I'm warming up with a hot drink and then going out to talk to voters. I believe in the power of meeting voters face-to-face and hearing firsthand what issues matter most to them. My opponent, Kelly Ayotte, is taking it easy thinking he…

John, have you seen the latest poll on New Hampshire’s 2024 Gubernatorial Race? DONATE THE GOOD NEWS: The numbers show momentum is on our side and we're the best positioned candidate to take on Kelly Ayotte – and with 17% of voters undecided we have plenty of room to grow. THE BAD NEWS: Kelly Ayo…

Hey John, before you start your weekend...

We had to reach out before the weekend:  Our mid-month fundraising deadline is at midnight, and we've still got a $750 gap to fill.  This mid-month goal keeps us on track to get our numbers in a good place before the end-of-quarter deadline in just two weeks. A strong quarter means we need to show s…

RAPID RESPONSE: PragerU’s far-right infiltration of our education system

Today’s Board of Education decision to allow PragerU to operate in New Hampshire is a blatant failure of state leadership for letting a far-right organization infiltrate our public education system. I’m appalled, everyone, and I’m going to call it like it is. Today’s Board of Education decision to a…

I’ll put Granite Staters first – always.

John, I've been traveling the state – from the North Country to Nashua – and there is one thing I hear over and over again: folks are sick and tired of politicians like Kelly Ayotte who act without our best interests in mind.   The thing is, Kelly Ayotte is funded by mega-donors which means that if…

Protect New Hampshire from extreme abortion bans

Did you know New Hampshire is the only state in New England without proactive protections for abortion rights? And Kelly Ayotte poses the most extreme threat to abortion access that New Hampshire has ever faced.  We're facing unprecedented attacks on our rights across the country and right here in …

Affording a place to live shouldn’t be this hard.

John, there's a serious housing crisis in our state and we have to take action.  I've seen firsthand how many struggle to find an affordable place to live. That's why, as Mayor of Manchester, I allocated $10 million to the city's affordable housing trust fund and worked directly with developers to …

It’s back to school season!

Hey John – it’s Sarah Craig.  Yesterday was my first day back to school teaching, and I can't go through the back-to-school season without thinking about my Mom, Joyce.

John, Labor Day has a special meaning to me.   My family is a union family. My dad is a retired IBEW electrician, and my daughter is a public school teacher. I know firsthand the impact the lack of local jobs has on families. When I was young, my dad had to move to Wisconsin for over a year because…

polls show we can beat Kelly Ayotte

John, in a race like ours, every fundraising deadline is important.   And August? August is especially important because it is the FIRST deadline since a public poll showed me as the best candidate to defeat anti-choice Republican Kelly Ayotte.  But that same poll shows that Ayotte has a lead right…
