He is a strong leader with experience and integrity who will stand up to protect our way of life in New Hampshire. Washington politicians’ decisions are driving up the cost of everything from a gallon of milk to a gallon of gas. Instead of providing solutions to these problems, politicians leave middle-class families in New Hampshire to foot the bill.
Lou Gargiulo is an experienced business leader who will use this real-world experience to deliver for Seacoast families and businesses. He will never support an income, sales or capital gains tax and will always fight for a balanced budget with responsible spending.
Lou will work with the Governor and members of both political parties in a bipartisan manner to impart positive change to improve our children’s education, balance the budget, help small business and always put the interests of Seacoast families and retires first.
Lou will always listen to his constituents and bring their concerns to Concord. He will not be influenced by special interests, political elites, or any political party, nor will he compromise his core values. Any action he takes, or any decision he makes will be guided by what’s in the best interest of his constituents and the next generation, not the next election. Lou is a husband, father, and grandfather and an Army veteran who believes before self- • Increased costs of groceries, goods and gas—gas which effects every other purchasing we do—is killing New Hampshire families. Report after report indicates, the buying power of the average family is down. We are changing our habits to accommodate our household budgets to the highest inflation in 40 years. • With the fall coming, this means people are considerably concerned about the ability to heat their homes, particularly our seniors who live on a fixed income. • While Washington keeps telling us inflation isn’t as bad as it seems because wages have increased to compensate, that has zero effect on anyone on a fixed income, such as retirees, who are watching their costs increase and their retirement accounts decrease.
- • New Hampshire has aways believed in local control—of our schools, of our zoning and building planning. Concord has no business telling a local community what it can and cannot do in terms of local housing projects. • Decisions should always be made by those in the community being affected such decisions. Not, bureaucrats in Concord
- We need to incentives businesses and manufacturing growth in NH. We can do this with tax incentives, and we can do it with direct outreach to businesses looking for a more tax friendly climate. I will never vote to increase taxes on businesses, as they are the work force engine. The New Hampshire advantage is about more than low taxes, it’s about quality of life. We need to showcase the work and life opportunities NH can provide, to keep young workers here, rather than moving out of state.
I will fight wasteful spending and I will never vote for an income tax or a broad-based tax such as a sales tax in NH. NH has a budget surplus because of our low tax structure which encourages businesses to come here and consumers to shop here. I will fight all efforts to increase taxes or to increase spending. Instead, surpluses should be used to benefit struggling families in NH
I will work tirelessly end the opioid epidemic, we must first understand the roots of it. From home life which may lead to addiction to the fact that many opioid addicts began their addiction by prescribed prescription drugs. As a State we must ensure adequate treatment and counseling facilities are available with patient centric approaches employed. We must also support both Federal and State Law enforcement to slow the flow of illegal drugs from our southern boarder and from surrounding States that is flowing into NH.

Delegate rules
In New Hampshire, presidential candidates were required to submit lists of preferred delegates prior to the state primary election on February 9, 2016. After the primary, if a candidate was allocated any delegates, he or she was allowed to select an official delegate slate from the list they submitted prior to the primary. New Hampshire delegates were bound on all ballots. Delegates were to be released and unbound if a candidate "withdraws" from the race.

Of the remaining 17 delegates, 14 served at large.
