A stop has been added to his schedule at 4 p.m. today and his schedule is now as follows:

Saturday, June 27
10:30 a.m. Nashua Town Meeting, Nashua Community College, 505 Amherst Street, Nashua
2 p.m. Bow House Party, Home of Ron and Meredith Abramson, 2 Hop Kiln Road, Bow

1:30 p.m. Durham Town Meeting, Oyster River High School, 55 Coe Drive, Durham
4 p.m. Laconia Town Meeting, Lake Opechee Inn, 62 Doris Ray Court, Laconia

A a Suffolk University poll last week showed Sanders at 31 percent compared to Hillary Clinton’s 41 percent, while a a CNN/WMUR poll Thursday shows Clinton with just an 8 point lead.

With his numbers climbing, Sanders’ popularity in New Hampshire may be less an issue right now than his party status, as running as a Democrat may be problematic.

On July 1, Sanders will appear in Madison, Wisconsin, at Veterans Memorial Coliseum at Alliant Energy Center, and he will move on to Rochester, Minnesota, the next day at the Rochester International Event, before moving on to Iowa, which has swung Democrat in three of the last four elections.
