CONWAY – Republican presidential hopeful Jeb Bush hopes to show New Hampshire voters what he's made of in advance of the Republican Primary on Feb. 9.
Bush, 62, served as governor of Florida from 1999-2007. His father, George H.W. Bush, and brother George W. Bush both served as president. He is among the dozen or so candidates seeking the Republican nomination and presidency in 2016.
