-New Hampshire Students for Barack Obama has chapters on 12 campuses around the state.
-Students at these universities have knocked on more than 17,000 doors and made more than 18,000 calls to speak with their fellow students about why they believe Senator Obama is the candidate that will bring about real change for our country.
-More than 100 students participated in 3-on-3 basketball tournaments and voter registration drives at UNH, Keene State, Dartmouth, and SNHU
