PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY
JANUARY 8, 2008
On the eve of Thanksgiving, a uniquely American
tradition, I am pleased to announce that another unique and important
American tradition will endure. New Hampshire has held the first
presidential primary in the nation since 1920. This tradition has
served our nation well as decades of candidates and presidents have
said.
Under the authority
given to me by New Hampshire law, today I am setting January 8, 2008 as
the date of the New Hampshire primary.
I want to thank the
candidates who filed their candidacies just weeks ago, all of whom
expressed their support and willingness to participate in our
grassroots democracy. I want to thank the voters and election
officials of my state for their support and patience. I am also
grateful for the courtesy and understanding extended to all of us by the
New Hampshire and national medial during recent weeks.
