The tradition of the McIntyre–Shaheen dinner goes all the way back to 1959, when a group of Granite State Democrats came together to fundraise for the presidential candidacy of John F. Kennedy, and now over 600 Democrats will join together to support every Democrat up and down the ballot. The funds raised for this event will help expand the organizing and digital teams of the NHDP. It is crucial that we expand our digital presence and organize earlier than ever before to build strong community ties and reach every voter possible!
