CONWAY — New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan gave a talk on Tuesday at the Gibson Center for Senior Services in North Conway, where voters aired their fears about the upcoming elections in light of the turmoil they say President Trump has created in this country.
Scanlan spoke to a full Sprague Dining Room for about an hour and 10 minutes. About 30 people attended. Valley Vision filmed the event.
