He’s just so awkward, you almost have to feel sorry for him.

GOP presidential hopeful Jeb Bush made a cringe-worthy plea Tuesday in New Hampshire to a college student who never voted before.

“I want to be your first,” he told the student, according to Washington Post reporter Ed O’Keefe, who tweeted the awkward exchange.

The former Florida governor had been taking questions at a town hall event in Rindge, NH.

He is in the Granite State after suffering a shellacking in the Iowa caucus.

Bush garnered just 2.8% of the Republican turnout on Monday — placing him a distant sixth among the other candidates, despite reportedly spending $2,884 per vote.
