DeSantis’ speech breaks fundraising records for GOP in New HampshireBy Mark Moore

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sold out a Republican dinner in New Hampshire, pulling in more than a quarter of a million dollars and breaking the record for the state party’s largest fundraiser.
The Republican governor and likely 2024 presidential candidate headlined the Amos Tuck Dinner in Manchester on Friday evening, packing the Double Tree Hilton to the rafters and raking in more than $250,000 for the Granite State GOP.
Chris Ager, the chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party, told the New Hampshire Journal that DeSantis’ speech was “record breaking.”
“Largest fundraiser in the history of the NHGOP, raising more than a quarter of a million dollars. Ticket sales were halted earlier this week after we exceeded planned capacity,” Ager said.
He said the party had hoped to sell 500 tickets to the event at $150 a pop, but quickly exceeded that goal.
