On Wednesday Carleigh joined the Gilmanton Democratic Committee for her first "District Dialogue" where she asked participants, "what do you wish politicans understood better about your experience and community?" The result was a spirited and wide-ranging conversation, and people left with a better sense of how to talk to their neighbors about the issues that mattered most to them.

After one full day on the campaign trail, Carleigh annouced raising over $100,000 and earning 50 public endorsements from leaders across the First District! This is just the beginning.

Carleigh announced her campaign for Congress on Wednesday, not with a flashy photo-op or a fancy house party, but from the steps of the Hampton Town Hall because that's where people in her community go when they need help.
