Three of the four leading candidates for governor have confirmed their participation in the event:

Former Manchester Mayor and City Alderman Joyce Craig (Democrat) has also been invited to participate.
Bruce Berke, NFIB’s state director in New Hampshire, will be the moderator, and question topics will include taxes, regulations, health care, and economic development, among other pressing issues for Main Street businesses and communities.
“NFIB’s forum will provide an invaluable opportunity for our members and other business owners to hear where each candidate stands on the issues affecting New Hampshire’s job creators,” NFIB State Director Bruce Berke said. “Candidates will be able to tell small business owners and all voters in the Granite State their positions on the key issues in this election and the agenda they will set as governor. Our members are delighted that three of the four major candidates have made time to attend the small business gubernatorial forum, and we are still hopeful that Joyce Craig will participate as well.”
