Every election cycle, the Red Arrow Diner is the place to meet New Hampshire voters and discover the issues on their minds as they prepare to go to the polls. Less than a week before the midterm elections on October 29, WBZ-TV CBS Boston visited the Red Arrow Diner in Manchester to connect with our diners about the NH Senate race between Democrat Chris Pappas and Republican John Sununu. During the impromptu visit, reporter Payton May asked Red Arrow Diner patrons how they planned to vote and which issues would affect their voting decisions. While some voters stated that they planned to vote along their preferred party lines, others were still making up their minds about the candidates, saying they would decide how to cast their vote based on the candidates’ stated goals and plans while in office.
When asked about the issues influencing their votes, each person sharedthe same concern: affordability. The voters interviewed specifically mentioned tariffs and the high prices of gas and everyday goods.
For over a century, the Red Arrow Diner has proved that good food bridges all political divides. We are proud to be a place where people from all walks of life and backgrounds can come together and enjoy a delicious meal in a welcoming atmosphere.
The Red Arrow Diner team was excited to welcome reporter Payton May and appreciates the consideration to include our Manchester location in this political segment.
