Goodman Kicks Off State Senate Campaign

Republican launches District 23 campaign at Telly's Restaurant in Epping. Will signup to run on June 9.

EPPING, NH - Bob Goodman, a candidate for the NH State Senate representing District 23, kicked off his campaign on Thursday with a well-attended event at Telly’s Restaurant, according to a press statement. In attendance were many supporters from the district, House Representatives and many volunteers ready to support a rigorous grassroots campaign, the campaign noted.

Those speaking at the event and endorsing Goodman were past Senate President, Bill Bartlett of Kingston, Pat Abrami, State Rep/Stratham and Ken Weyler, State Rep/Kingston. They focused on his "calm demeanor, ability to get things done and Bartlett emphasized the fact that Goodman has been in the political arena for years and will not be new to the workings in Concord," according to a press statement.

Goodman said, “We had a great night and it was good to see all the support we have within the district and those outside the district who want to volunteer on the campaign. I am excited to get out and listen to what the voters have to say.”
