About Me

Hi! My name is Quinn and I am a 16-year-old political commentator from New Hampshire. I have attended over 100 presidential rallies since the age of 10, have met several presidents, and have asked numerous questions, which have given me a unique perspective into the world of politics (which I am still figuring out).

This website is dedicated to promoting my blog and podcast where I will attempt to give an unbiased view of my perspective on the presidential process in how the candidate performed, the content of a speech, differentiation from the field, hypocritical aspects, retail political skills, turnout, energy, how they handled mine or an other's questions, and much more. You can find my podcast "Into The Tussle" in the podcast section or any major streaming platform, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.

My experiences and questions have been covered in The Boston Globe, The New York Times, CNN, USA Today, The Daily Beast, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and many more which are linked below.

If you have any feedback or want to contact me please head to the contact section.
