Republican Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal will travel to New Hampshire, a top destination for 2016 hopefuls, to headline a fundraiser for state Senate Republicans next month, CNN reported Thursday. 

“The state Senate Republicans for the first time are the backstop for all the spending and taxes in New Hampshire,” Michael Dennehy, a GOP consultant organizing the event, told CNN…. 

 

“Unofficially, New Hampshire also welcomes a governor who Republicans across the country are looking to as a possible candidate for the GOP nomination in 2016,” he said. “It continues to show the power of New Hampshire to attract a popular governor to the first in the nation primary state.”

As TPM reported Monday, Jindal’s popularity has taken a tumble in his home state after his plan to overhaul that state’s tax system was met with disapproval and ultimately withdrawn. His approval rating in Louisiana is at just 38 percent.
