Maggie for NH released a new television ad today, "Political Calculation," on how Kelly Ayotte's craven political maneuvering on Donald Trump is just the latest example of how Ayotte always puts her own political interests first, even when it costs New Hampshire.
Ayotte's political maneuvering has been front and center over the past two weeks, as she swung from saying Trump is "absolutely" a role model for children to trying to distance herself from his candidacy in a political calculation to try to get re-elected. And Ayotte's Trump troubles represent just the latest in her long record of putting her own political interests before New Hampshire. Ayotte has voted with the Koch Brothers nearly 90% of the time in her first four years in Washington and corporate special interests like the Koch Brothers spend millions to re-elect her.
"From voting with the Koch Brothers nearly 90% of the time in her first four years in office to her political maneuvering on Donald Trump, Kelly Ayotte has spent her Washington career looking out for her own political interests while the people and small businesses of New Hampshire paid the price," said Maggie for NH Press Secretary Meira Bernstein. "Granite Staters know they can't trust Ayotte to do what's right for them if it doesn't fit into her political strategy, and voters across the political spectrum will see right through Ayotte's finger-to-the-wind efforts to save her own seat."
