Biden Launches Write-In Campaign in New Hampshire

President Joe Biden on Monday launched a write-in campaign in New Hampshire after announcing he would not be on the primary election ballot in the state.

The campaign's website calls the project a "grassroots effort led by dozens of citizens across the state who are committed to writing in Joe Biden in New Hampshire’s 2024 Presidential Primary."

Biden announced he would not be on the ballot last week, following guidance from the Democratic Party after New Hampshire indicated it won't follow primary calendar changes.

In order to vote for Biden, voters in the New Hampshire primary will now have to write in the president’s name.

“Writing in Joe Biden for President on the primary ballot is how New Hampshire voters can show the world our commitment to freedom, to standing up to the MAGA extremists, to keeping us safe and strong around the world, and to building an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top," said Kathy Sullivan, former NH Democratic Party Chair. 

The effort from Biden's campaign comes just days after Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips filed a longshot bid for the New Hampshire primary.
