New Hampshire: Maureen Barrows

MINNEAPOLIS--A delegate to the Republican National Convention says her time on the platform committee was an opportunity to serve the party and a lesson in endurance.

"In 2000 there was a divide between the various factions but that's not the case this time around," Rockingham County Commissioner Maureen Barrows told PolitickerNH.com. "It's an honor and a privilege and a great opportunity. It also requires a lot of stamina because most of the days are 12 to 14 hour days."
