Patch Candidate Profile, Linda McGrath

Age (as of Sept. 1, 2024)

64

Town or City of Residence

Hampton

Position Sought

State Representative District 40 (Hampton/Seabrook Floterial)

Family

I have three daughters and six grandchildren, which is why I am running. I want to be able to look them in the eye and tell them that I fought for their freedoms.

Does anyone in your family work in politics or government?

No one in my family has ever sought elected office.

Education

University of Connecticut School of Pharmacy

Occupation

I have worked as a pharmacist for over 40 years, in hospital, home infusion and most recently retail pharmacy. I was fired from my job for refusing to inject children with the covid shot. Every medical professional weighs the benefit vs. the risk for any drug or procedure. Sweden proved that children did not need it (no benefit) and no one knew the risks of this experimental therapy. We now know teenage boys are especially at risk for myocarditis from the shot.

Previous or Current Elected or Appointed Office

Currently, I am the co-clerk for the Hampton GOP, a State Delegate and a State Committee Member.

The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.

The single most pressing issue for myself is to prevent any more government mandates. We cannot allow our elected officials to close our small business but not our big ones, close our churches but not our liquor stores, mask our children and force people to choose between an unwanted injection or losing their job and ability to provide for their family.

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?

I have been working with the Hampton GOP, in coordination with all the other seacoast GOP committees, to build up our organization and membership and to reestablish conservatism along our seacoast communities.

Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform:

Other issues that are important for me to address are 1. Education, we need to be laser focused on academic excellence. 2. Closed borders, no sanctuary status in NH. 3. Saving our girls sports and the essence of Title IX, there is a reason that we test Olympic athletes for male hormones. 4. No vaccine mandates, the question is who gets to decide?

What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this position?

I have served many roles in the past: Girl Scout Leader and Town Council Leader for 11 years, a youth group leader for 7 years as well as in the PTA in my children's schools. I served in the leadership of my Temple as well as the JFNH, and have the secretary for NH4Israel for 16 years. I have served as a hospice volunteer and a Rockingham County family mediator.

The best advice ever shared with me was…

God told us more than anything else in the bible is to "Fear Not". Live your life joyously, without fear!

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?

I believe many politicians in both parties do not act in the best interest of the people. I pledge to always uphold the Constitution, the document that protects our freedom.

The most powerful words every written are "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Libery, and the pursuit of Happiness"
