The Independent View: The 603 Alliance - NH Grassroots Activists

Thanks to Richard Winger of Ballot Access News for this post.

Well-known Conservative activists and like-minded constitutionalists in New Hampshire and surrounding states will launch their new initiative, the 603 Alliance for the purpose of impacting the outcome of the New Hampshire First-in-the-National Primary election.

These activists realize from past elections that splitting their votes among numerous conservative candidates enables moderate establishment candidates to victory, and that only a consolidating effort on their parts will result in a victory for a conservative candidate.

So, Conservatives in New Hampshire will hold a caucus on October 17, to which all registered New Hampshire Republicans and independents are invited. The specific location in New Hampshire will be chosen by the end of May. The hosts will have a list of the New Hampshire voter registered voters. The caucus will then allow all attendees to choose their favorite Republican presidential candidate. The voting will be in multiple stages, using the principles of ranked-choice voting. After the first ballot, the two presidential candidates who poll the fewest votes will be dropped. Successive voting rounds will continue to eliminate candidates.

The group hopes to use this event to give the winning candidate a chance to then present himself or herself as the choice of conservatives, in preparation for the January 2016 New Hampshire Republican presidential primary. This project uses the name “The 603 Alliance.” for the New Hampshire’s area code of 603.

A separate, though complimentary, organization has just been launched in New Hampshire and shares principles similar to those of the 603 Alliance. The Conservative Business League of New Hampshire, LLC (CBL-NH) is a membership organization of concerned citizens and businesses, whose goal is to educate the citizens of New Hampshire about constitutional conservative candidates who embody the principles of CBL-NH. These principles include personal and economic freedom, as well as working toward a debt-free future.

The focus of CBL-NH includes immigration reform, tax reform, and adherence to the 1st, 2nd, 9th, and 10th amendments to the US Constitution. The primary focus for 2015 will be the Presidential Primary and the conservative candidates, with a shift in 2016 to the State and Federal races.

CBL-NH will provide support for candidates by holding events for its members and supporters. In addition, CBL-NH will aggressively promote and provide candidate access to non-traditional Republicans, constitutionalists and conservatives, disenfranchised voters, and undeclared voters.
