Gabbard Campaign to Protest CNN Townhall over New Hampshire Snub
Yahoo! News ^ | February 6, 2020 | by Tobias Hoonhout

Representative Tulsi Gabbard (D., Hawaii) is scheduling a protest outside the New Hampshire venue where CNN is hosting town halls ahead of the state’s primary next week, after Gabbard was excluded from the two-night lineup — despite out-polling townhall guests Andrew Yang, Tom Steyer, and Deval Patrick in New Hampshire.

“This attempt to silence Tulsi is bigger than one person — it’s our right as voters to hear from ALL the candidates, and to have our voices represented. No institution should be allowed to get away with censoring democracy: That’s why we’re standing up to CNN on Wednesday, February 5th, demanding that our voices be heard,” the Gabbard campaign told Fox News.

Gabbard told the network last week that she had reached out about being excluded, but had not received a response.

“We have reached out, I think, more than once, and we received no explanation. I don’t even think we’ve gotten a response to date about why they’re excluding the first female combat veteran ever to run for president, the only woman of color in the race,” she said.

Gabbard currently sits sixth in New Hampshire polling at 4.7 percent, while Yang polls at 3.7 percent, and Tom Steyer at 3.1 percent, according to a RealClearPolitics polling average.

At least you’re following the rules....

Tulsi’s been advertising in New Hampshire for month, but don’t think she broke 1% in Iowa.

When nobody's listening to your complaints about nobody listening to your complaints, it's time to let it go.

I don't think she has either.

She is the best pick out of the whole Apple Cart of Crazy, she might actually not be too terrible, until I remember that she would let every single Illegal Alien who comes waltzing across the border cut right in front of you for everything.

Sorry Tulsi, the Democrat's dependence on Illegal Immigrants is really costing you all with the people who matter, i.e. Americans.

I drove through Iowa in June and she had billboards all along I-80. Being the early bird there got her a big goose egg.

She’s not going anywhere unless she gets her mind right on the issues and becomes a republican.

Tulsi: Feel the Bern - you’re the one they REALLY don’t want to win.

Here’s a solution: set up an interview on Fox DURING the NH debate. You’ll get a bigger audience.

"When nobody's listening to your complaints about nobody listening to your complaints, it's time to let it go."

You nailed it. She should drop out. Anything else would show she is delusional about her chances. Not Biden delusional but still delusional.

I saw a caucus site on the tublerad where she had one supporter in her corner. Less than 15% but better than some others.

Looking at post number one, she looks like a fraud surfing too. Could she have found a smaller wave?

Well, they’re allowed, but the admission price for russian agents is a pee-stained dossier with stories made up about Trump.

Tulsi got a lot of money and support from the Maharishis in Fairfield, Iowa. She didn’t even do well in the county Fairfield is in. They went for Bernie.

Sorry, Tulsi.

CNN loves war.

You don’t.

You lose.
