OBAMA TO PARTICIPATE IN JUNE 3RD NEW HAMPSHIRE DEBATE

Manchester, NH – Senator Barack Obama today agreed to participate in the New Hampshire debate sponsored by the Union Leader, WMUR, and the CNN. The debate is scheduled for June 3 in Manchester, New Hampshire.
 

"We had hoped that the DNC and the debate’s sponsors would agree to make this debate one of the DNC’s six sanctioned debates,” said Obama New Hampshire Director Matt Rodriguez. “However, Senator Obama believes talking about how we can change our politics with the other candidates in the home of the nation’s first primary is an opportunity too important to miss.”
