Rand's NH Campaign Office Break In

Should Rand mention this at the debate? "I wasnt sure if I would get invited to this debate, seeing how I was left off of polls results posted on Fox, with somebody listed twice instead of my name, and another person having their picture above my name. Then just the other day my campaign office was broken into my computers with personal campaign databases on it were stolen. It's strange how these things only happen to me" something along those lines. If people see there's people ignoring him, being bias against him, and attacking him, they might rally behind him.

If I were him, it would be my opening statement.

I would simply explain to the audience that a rival campaign broke into his office and stole his information. Then explicitly allocate the remainder of his time in silence, until someone stepped forward.
 
I really hope they encrypted the files....I encrypted a voter list just for my precinct delegate race.

Don't take this as destructive criticism, but if I was running a campaign for president with stakes this high, I would have somebody sleeping at every single campaign headquarters in every state. Who didn't see this coming?

I agree. If this is happening, I can only imagine there's nothing in place to help prevent the corrupt voting shenanigans that took place last time around.
 
Fucking assholes. I really hope they had backups of this. It would be very irresponsible to leave all that behind and not have any backups.
 
This sucks, but we can make lemonade out of it.

...also, if a suspect is IDed soon, and it turns out to be someone associated with another campaign, the resulting press would almost be worth them having done it.
 
A thorough investigation could yield results. Perhaps there were not cameras actually in the office, however if you are in the business of stealing computers you are going to need a vehicle, you are going to need to park that vehicle and you are going to need to carry computers to it. I know nothing of what the campaign offices are like or where they are situated but I would like to think that these things mean that there is a decent chance of catching the perps on camera somewhere around the building.

Moreover these are the Presidential campaign offices of a sitting U.S. Senator, so I would also like to think that law enforcement will take this investigation pretty seriously, and if there is evidence to be found they will do their best to try to find it.

Most thefts of phones/tablets/laptops these days lead to the perp being photographed by the device they stole. I know these are probably desktop PC's but I also wonder if the use of any of the hardware or software could create a trail and lead investigators to the computers.

Maybe I am being overly optimistic, but if the perps can be identified, and if it can be demonstrated to be a political theft, that will makes some serious waves.
 
More media picking up the story:

MANCHESTER, N.H., Jan. 27 (UPI) -- A staffer at the Manchester, N.H., campaign office for Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., reported a break-in Wednesday.

Michael Biundo, national adviser for Paul's campaign, tweeted in the morning about the break-in.

"Going to Iowa today for the final caucus push and now I am dealing with our New Hampshire for .@RandPaul office being broken into," he wrote, though didn't specify what, if anything, was taken.

Manchester police confirmed reports of a burglary at the office, but said a full report would not be available until at least Thursday.
The campaign has yet to comment on the incident.

We need to do everything we can to spread this news far and wide.
 
No telling who stole the computers. They need more security. Cameras at a minimum. Hopefully important data was encrypted.
 
I hope this is a wake-up call to those in Iowa. Protect that list!! If I were them I'd leave behind decoy computers with fake voter lists for them to steal. Assholes.

With only addresses and numbers of FBI, dept. Justice and police offices ? That would be funny. :p
 
Rand needs to mention this at the debate, as well as all of the propaganda poll screenshots FNC has been airing on TV. He needs to attack the media and Cruz HARD.

Rand Paul's New Hampshire campaign headquarters was burglarized overnight, according to police and campaign officials.

Manchester Police said the headquarters, located at 50 Bridge St., was broken into sometime between 11 p.m. Tuesday and 8:50 a.m. Wednesday. A campaign worker came into the office and noticed some computers and other items were missing.

Matt Chisholm, Paul's New Hampshire communications director, said four iPads, two laptop computers, two cell phones and some other small electronic devices, including cameras and headphones, were stolen.

He said the thieves appear to have accessed the office by breaking down a door.

There are no suspects at this time but police are continuing to investigate.
