CONCORD, N.H. — New Hampshire may only have four electoral votes, but it will play host to five big names in politics Friday.
Hours after President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and their spouses appear in Portsmouth, GOP nominee Mitt Romney will hold a rally in Nashua Friday night.
It’s not the first time the candidates have nearly crossed paths — both Obama and Romney campaigned in Ohio on the same day in June and Obama visited the Iowa State Fair last month a few hours after Romney’s running mate, Paul Ryan.
But for New Hampshire, the dual appearances cap months of near-constant campaigning both before and after the presidential primary in January. Obama, Biden and first lady have visited nine times this year. Romney, meanwhile, has been back every month since April.
