CONWAY — During a tour of North Conway on Monday, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Dan Feltes pledged to help small businesses unlike the man who hopes to unseat in November, incumbent Gov. Chris Sununu.
Feltes, 41, of Concord is N.H. Senate Majority Leader. On Monday, he and his assistant Cayla Eck were escorted around North Conway Village by outgoing state Rep. Ed Butler (D-Hart’s Location) on a fact-finding trip on which Feltes said he hoped to learn about any businesses in town that need assistance due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
