DOVER, N.H. – More than 800 people turned out Friday morning to see Mayor Pete Buttigieg speak at Henry Law Park.

Buttigieg, a Democratic presidential candidate from South Bend, Indiana, began by talking about values, freedom and faith.

“Right now, we have politicians who cloak themselves in the language of religion, and then set out to afflict the afflicted and comfort the comfortable. It’s not right under any version of ethics and we’re going to change that and remind people that religion doesn’t have to push you into the arms of the religious right,” he said.

Buttigieg answered questions from the crowd about the importance of voting, the U.S. Supreme Court, his Douglass Plan to tackle systemic racism and student debt.
