Sheriff Bill Wright, Belknap County Sheriff and former Vice Chairman of Belknap County GOP, Belmont
“Law enforcement officials like me are lining up behind Russell Prescott because we know he will have our backs in Congress like he did in Concord. He will fight for Belknap County families on Capitol Hill and will work every day to ensure we bring New Hampshirite values to Washington.”
Retired Sheriff of Strafford County, Wayne Estes, Dover
“It is crucial for us to elect a member of Congress who will have law enforcement’s backs in Washington. Russell Prescott has proven that he understands the importance of supporting those who wear the uniform, and that is why I am firmly with him in the race for Congress in New Hampshire’s First District. I am confident that Russell has the track record and the experience we need now more than ever in Congress.”
Diane Bitter, founding member of the 603 Alliance and longtime conservative activist, Rye Beach
“Russell Prescott not only has what it takes to beat Chris Pappas next November, he’s the kind of proven results-oriented conservative we need to send to Washington.”
