GOP hopefuls for president talk with voters at USA TODAY town halls: What you missed

A series of town hall forums presented by USA TODAY, the USA TODAY Network and Seacoastonline for Republican presidential hopefuls took place in Exeter, New Hampshire this past week.

The forums were held at Exeter Town Hall, where many former presidents, including Donald Trump and Barack Obama, have campaigned.

Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and former Vice President Mike Pence, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy held town halls. You can watch all of the replays below.

Exeter Town Hall has the distinction of being the only location remaining in New Hampshire where Abraham Lincoln spoke in 1860, just months before launching his presidential campaign.

Vivek Ramaswamy

Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy said on Saturday that an outside perspective was needed to end the rampant corruption he claimed was running through the country. He said he would shut down federal agencies he feels should no longer exist, including the Department of Education.

"I come from outside the world of politics. I'm a businessman, not a politician," Ramaswamy told voters.

Mike Pence

Former Vice President Mike Pence told voters it was time to restore 'a threshold of civility' in public life during his town hall on Friday. "I'll always believe by God's grace I did my duty that day to support the Constitution of the United States," Pence said. "I want people to know the way forward in this country is for us to get back to what we all agree upon...I hope we proved in part that day, I'm that man."

Doug Burgum

North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum shared his thoughts on unions forming across the country demanding better pay during his USA Today New Hampshire Town Hall Tuesday.

"We are taking away American jobs and then we are outsourcing those jobs to China," Burgum said.

The North Dakota Governor explained that Joe Biden is the reason for the strikes around the country because our energy policy encourages technology that requires less workers.

Nikki Haley

Former U.N. ambassador and GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley called for new leadership while rebuking Donald Trump and Joe Biden during her USA Today New Hampshire Town Hall on Thursday.

"We all need to acknowledge that it is time for a new generation of leader," Haley said in response to a question about recent comments made by Donald Trump in reference to Israel. "We have to leave the negativity, the chaos and the baggage of the past."

Haley spoke to voters at a full Exeter Town Hall in which she criticized Biden and questioned his fitness for duty. "We need people who are at the top of their game," she said.

Asa Hutchinson

Former Arkansas governor and Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson positioned himself as an anti-Trump, traditional Republican during his USA Today New Hampshire Town Hall Tuesday.

Hutchinson said, "we need a course correction in the Republican Party" in front of a handful of New Hampshire voters at Exeter Town Hall in Exeter, New Hampshire.

The former two term Arkansas governor argued that the country should take a larger role in the international order saying that former President Donald Trump wants a, "ring around the United States."
