AFP Action Launches Statewide Ground Game Behind Sununu

Manchester, NH – On Saturday, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) activists and volunteers came together in Manchester for a grassroots kickoff event with U.S. Senate candidate John Sununu, building on ongoing grassroots efforts and ramping up voter outreach across the Granite State ahead of a critical election season.

Sununu and AFP Action Senior Advisor Sarah Scott addressed volunteers and supporters before heading out to knock doors and connect with voters. 

AFP Action Senior Advisor Sarah Scott issued the following statement:

Elections are won on the ground, and Saturday’s kickoff showed the energy and commitment already behind John Sununu. With margins expected to be razor-thin, the conversations happening at the doors right now will make all the difference come November.

“The message we heard from voters was clear—families are being squeezed and want real relief they can feel in their day-to-day lives, not more empty promises. John Sununu is the proven leader we need. He is someone who will fight for lower taxes, more opportunity, and a stronger economy. The energy we saw on the ground today is exactly what it’s going to take to turn out voters and secure victory in November.” 

John Sununu said

I am very grateful to have the endorsement of Americans for Prosperity Action and thankful to everyone who joined me knocking doors on Saturday. Had good conversations with voters and especially appreciated those who signed on to support my candidacy. The energy and enthusiasm of AFP Action volunteers and supporters is critical to our winning in November. As Senator, I’ll have just one job—stand up for the people of New Hampshire every single day.

Daily Signal: Americans for Prosperity Action Endorses Husted

Rebecca Downs | 3/16/26

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Sen. Jon Husted is landing an endorsement from Americans for Prosperity Action in what is set to become its largest grassroots effort campaign.

As Donovan O’Neil, a senior adviser to AFP Action, explained to The Daily Signal, the support for the Ohio Republican will involve a “robust” campaign from digital ads to canvassing.

It will also include a data focus, identifying 2 million voters for AFP Action to engage. O’Neil said this bloc of voters can be the “change maker” in the election.

Former Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is looking to make a comeback after losing to Republican now-Sen. Bernie Moreno in 2024.

AFP Action will immediately commence canvassing efforts across Ohio’s 88 counties.

As the secretary of state in 2017, Husted received the inaugural Taxpayers’ Torch Award from Americans for Prosperity’s Ohio chapter.

O’Neil applauded Husted’s efforts in the Senate on family tax cuts and on a principled balanced budget amendment. “Good government is the through line for Husted,” O’Neil shared, calling him “the future.”

Brown has attacked Husted on economic issues in recent weeks, saying the senator “would rather fight for billionaires” and calling attention to rising health care prices for Ohioans. 

“I’m in this for the Ohioans picking up odd jobs after work to help pay the rent. I’m in this for the parents putting $10 in the tank at a time just to make it to payday,” Brown said on X.

O’Neil recalled “consistently hearing at the doors in 2024” of concerns about the economy and inflation, a lack of reinvestment in Ohio, and border security.

Ohio has been a bellwether in past elections, and the state still carries significance in 2026. O’Neil acknowledged that Ohio “is a red state,” but that one “shouldn’t take Ohio voters for granted.”

“The final two years of [President Donald] Trump’s term will be highly impacted by how Ohio votes this November,” O’Neil said.

The Cook Political Report considers this Senate race as “Lean Republican.” The Ohio 2024 Senate race was reportedly the most expensive in the country, and this year’s race could follow that pattern.
