A new poll released on November 23, 2007 shows Bill Richardson surging in New Hampshire up by six points tied with Edwards and shrinking the gap between Clinton and Obama. On November 20 he spoke at Rivier College about his health care program.

Also, on November 20th Richardson released that New Mexico is ranked 11th among states in a Mothers against Drunk Driving State Progress Report in the battle against Drunk Driving. In his Thanksgiving address he wanted to remember and give thanks to the troops in Iraq and the many veterans that are homeless on the street with no home to go to.
