Dear Friends,
 
I want to thank all of you who stood with me during the primary. It was a wonderful experience and I feel confident that we raised the level of debate by reminding people we must make good on promises.  We reminded people we should be thinking of the next generation when we make choices; be it a choice on spending or a choice on the environment, energy or our military.  Together, we brought the theme of Common Sense in Government to the forefront and...

Please remember to get out to your local voting location and vote.

Hope you can join our team on Primary night at the Sky Lounge, 522 Amherst Street in Nashua.

Thanks for all your help and support!

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has teamed up with the campaign again.

In an article published by the Concord Monitor today Sen. Clegg discusses his plans for revitalizing the tax system and how to solve the current energy crisis.

Leave the campaign some comments on why you are a supporter of the "Fair Tax."

"I am so happy that you are running for Congress as I personally know that your word is your bond, as indicated on a very unique project that I was involved in, the Tamworth Dental Center. You will make a great Congressman because you work hard and fight for what you believe in. You are so determined, just look at what you have done for your own health, so you "can haunt your children in your old age". Wishing you very best and though you are not in my district I will be spread...

Dear Senator Clegg,

I write to support and endorse New Hampshire Senator Bob Clegg for United States Congress.

Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Airmen need someone like Senator Clegg a man who supports them 365 days a year, not just in November of an election year.  Senator Clegg has supported numerous bills to help New Hampshire guardsmen in his years in the New Hampshire Senator, his heart and head have always been in the right place.  Bob Clegg will not change just ...

As Congress enjoys a 5 week vacation, I've spent the last five days travelling New Hampshire and talking about what it is that makes our state and our citizens so great, and why I'd like to represent us in Congress. I dubbed this week New Hampshire Values Week to give myself the opportunity to focus on the real character of the Granite State. I wish Congress reflected our New Hampshire values of hard work, self-reliance, volunteerism and good old frugality. If they did, they wouldn't be on va...

The 2nd Amendment is one of the rights we hold most dear here in New Hampshire, and Sen. Clegg is a strong believer in the right to keep and bear arms. During his time in the State House he has gone to great lengths to make sure we are able to keep that right, and he will do the same thing in the U.S. Congress.

Tell us what you think about where we stand today as far as 2nd Amendment rights are concerned...

As New Hampshire Values Week continues here today, Sen. Clegg is honored to receive the endorsement of Gale Thomson, widow of former Governor Meldrim Thomson. Citing his conservative values and ability to work across party lines, Mrs. Thomson lent her support to the campaign.

Last week the Clegg for Congress Campaign kicked off “energy week.”  Throughout the week Sen. Clegg and supporters wrote guest posts discussing off shore drilling and alternative fuels.  

The price of a barrel of oil may have dipped slightly but we aren't out of the woods yet.  High energy costs continue to impact our entire economy.  And if you are like a lot of people, your family's budget is hurting.  Maybe you cut a vacation out, maybe you stopped taking your wife or husband out to dinner on Friday nights or maybe your son or daughter won't get as many new clothes as you shop and get ready for sending them back to school next month.  The Democrat led Co...

With the Clegg for Congress Campaign launching “Energy Week” Senator Clegg has written a guest post on Kevin Tracy’s website.  The post explains how we can solve the current oil problem and why we need to invest more time and money into alternative fuels.

Hundreds of you voted, and we appreciate the input!

Let's be sure and send Sen. Clegg to Washington this November to ensure that we have a congressman who uses our tax dollars wisely.

These are two questions Sen. Clegg asks in today's campaign video that we are spotlighting.

If you haven't already, make sure you head o...

Over the years, we have seen Dad work hard to provide for our family and sacrifice so much in order to make sure we had the tools we needed to succeed in life. Our father truly embodies the American Dream.  He has worked his way up the ladder, one step at a time, in order to become a successful businessman, community leader, and effective legislator. The same conservative values you have seen on display from him in the State Senate are the same values our Dad used to raise us. Trust us w...

"We had a great event with Mike Huckabee at the Sky Lounge in Nashua, with lots of guests, including the fella shown here. He is the democratic tracker sent to follow Clegg wherever he goes, but like Clegg and Huck, he
was a good sport and tried to have a good time, even if he was there to track the "enemy"! Can't we all just get along? Seems we can when Clegg, Huck, Music and food are involved!

Thanks for coming! You are welcome anytime!"
