Anita Freedman

Tomorrow, the New Hampshire Democratic State Committee will elect delegates to fill the two-at large Democratic National Committee (DNC) seats.

The delegates represent the party before the DNC and party rules stipulate that one seat is filled by a woman and the other by a man.

Anita Freedman and Gaetan DiGangi currently hold those seats. However, Freedman has decided to retire and DiGangi is being challenged by State Sen. Peter Burling (D-Cornish).

Former New Hampshire Democratic Party Chairwoman Kathy Sullivan has decided to run for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) seat being vacated by Anita Freedman.

The seat is one of two at-large seats that represents New Hampshire to the national party.

Sullivan cited the need to protect the New Hampshire primary as one reason why she is running.

In their upcoming State Convention, New Hampshire Democrats will get to vote for a new Democratic National Committee (DNC) person and will see a challenge for their other at-large seat.

The Union Leader is reporting that Anita Freedman has decided that she will not seek reelection to her post as DNC Committeewoman. Freedman has represented New Hampshire on the DNC since 1985.
