New Hampshire Veterans Back Governor Kelly Ayotte

NASHUA, N.H. — Last week, the Ayotte campaign launched its Veterans for Kelly Coalition, with more than 50 Granite Staters who have served our nation endorsing Governor Ayotte for re-election.

The coalition represents veterans from across the United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard, and is chaired by Governor Ayotte’s husband, Joe Daley, a retired United States Air Force pilot, and Dave Kenney, a retired United States Navy Commander.

“Our family is proud to have served our country, and I am proud of Kelly’s work to support our service members, veterans, and their families,” said Daley. “As Governor, she has prioritized hiring veterans and their spouses for state jobs, and she has been a tremendous advocate for our National Guard. I know Kelly will continue working to make New Hampshire the most veteran-friendly state in the nation.”

“As the wife of an Air Force veteran and the mother of two children who followed in their father’s footsteps, Governor Ayotte understands firsthand the sacrifices made by those who serve our country and the families who stand beside them,” Kenney added. “She has always stood with New Hampshire’s veterans, service members, and military families, and has made sure their service and sacrifice are never forgotten. From supporting veterans as they transition to civilian life to ensuring they have access to the care and resources they’ve earned, Kelly Ayotte has shown a deep and lasting commitment to those who have worn our nation’s uniform.”
