It has been announced that “A meeting with students in Nashua kicks off the trip, which also includes stops in Hollis, Rochester and Hampton.

This is an important trip for Sanders. MSNBC reported Saturday that Sanders is counting on a win in New Hampshire, where the latest polls show him to be 10 points ahead of Hillary Clinton but where polling has see-sawed back and forth, “to give him the momentum he needs to continue fighting Hillary Clinton into the spring. And that makes the state potentially the most important of the early nominating contests.”
Sanders may need to win both Iowa and New Hampshire to pose a clear, mortal threat to Clinton. But a win in either state will keep him and his message alive to fight another day.
A win in neither would be the end of the line.
Fox News reports that Republican pollster Daron Shaw agrees where Iowa and New Hampshire are concerned. A Fox News poll released Sunday shows Clinton ahead in Iowa by double-digits.
Sanders spent the weekend in Iowa, including stops in Dubuque and Waterloo, where he repeated his call for “change in America” to “create an economy that works for the middle class and working families, not just a handful of billionaires.”
