Boston Mayor Marty Walsh spent part of his day in Manchester pounding the pavement in support of Hillary Clinton.

"It really is big push and New Hampshire is a big state for the primary and the Democrats, and we are up here supporting Hillary Clinton," he says.

Right now, Clinton is in damage control over new information about the private email server she used as secretary of state.
