E44: Melanie Levesque
from The Steve Marchand Podcast Hosted by Steve Marchand
Melanie Levesque has been deeply involved in NH electoral politics for 20 years, starting with her 2006 flip of a State House seat in Brookline, through her 2018 victory in the State Senate, to her current run for the Executive Council against longtime incumbent David Wheeler. It's a rematch of 2024 - a much tougher year for downballot Democrats than 2026 is expected to be - when Wheeler prevailed by 6.9%. In this episode, we go through a wide range of topic, from education and the ten-year transportation, to how she will find those extra votes needed to flip the script against Wheeler in 2026, to her experiences growing up in Nashua as a Black person in a (then) overwhelmingly white community. You can learn more about her campaign at www.MelanieForNH.com. #nhpolitics
