New Hampshire just held back-to-back Republican and Democratic debates on Sunday, and Tuesday night. All the candidates from both parties came to the Granite State to let voters, and viewers, know why they want to be the next president of the United States. These two debates were so important in determining the future for our country, that the ONE Campaign went to both debates to make sure that the world’s poorest people were not forgotten.

ONE members put “ONE” lawn signs all over the roads that led in and out of the debate site. It was no surprise that many people were familiar with the ONE Campaign and put on a “ONE” sticker while they held signs for the candidate they supported. And even better to see that many people at both debates were already wearing the ONE band and supporting the fight against AIDS and poverty.

On both nights, ONE members held signs and banners inside the giant area where all the campaigns gathered to rally before the debate. Mothers and daughters, young and old, Republicans and Democrats all came out to support the ONE Campaign and those that live on less than a dollar a day.

We had a great showing on both nights (even during some fierce thunderstorms), and we are just starting! In the coming months, all ONE members from across the country will be able to use their voices and make sure that our leaders know that fighting global disease and global extreme poverty is an American priority!”
