Yesterday, The Chair of the Derry Town Council, Neil Wetherbee, announced his endorsement of Pete Buttigieg for President of the United States.

Wetherbee is currently serving his third term on the Derry Town Council and is a local business owner.

“I’m proud to endorse Pete Buttigieg because as a mayor he understands there’s no Democratic way or Republican way to pick up the trash, plow the roads, or put out fires — the only thing that matters is delivering for the people who count on you, a perspective that’s missing from Washington these days,” said Wetherbee. “As the Chair of the Derry Town Council and an independent, I work with Democrats and Republicans. When we disagree, we don’t turn it into a partisan shouting match, we work it out — and as a mayor, that’s Pete’s approach. When our country is so polarized, Pete is bringing people together from across the political spectrum to implement bold solutions that the American people want and are actually achievable.”

Today, Dover Mayor Karen Weston announced her endorsement of Pete Buttigieg, citing his experience leading South Bend and his ability to bring Americans together to address the country’s most urgent challenges.

Weston has served on the Dover City Council for 12 years, and for the past six years has been the city’s mayor.

“I met a lot of presidential candidates this year, but I found Pete the most grounded and the most clear about his vision for the county. Granite Staters are looking for a leader who doesn’t just have bold ideas — but can actually bring the country together to tackle the challenges we face,” said Weston. “Mayors know how to bring people together, balance budgets, solve problems, and serve their communities — and that’s why I’m proud to support Pete. As Mayor, Pete has had to deal with the most urgent issues facing our country — from immigration to health insurance coverage to gun violence. Leading a city has given Pete the foundation, and the granular attention to detail, to be a great president.”

On Thursday, December 5, Pete Buttigieg will return to New Hampshire and hold town halls at New England College in Henniker, Milford, and Exeter. The following day he will participate in an hour-long forum hosted by New Hampshire Public Radio’s The Exchange and New Hampshire PBS and a house party in Concord.
