Washington, D.C. - Tonight, businessman Donald Trump and United States Senator Bernie Sanders emerged as winners of the "First in the Nation" New Hampshire presidential primary for the Republican and Democratic Party nominations, respectively. In response, Log Cabin Republicans President Gregory T. Angelo issued the following statement:

"Tonight the people of New Hampshire made two bold choices: Democrats made the decision to support a candidate with a genuine record of supporting the LGBT community when it mattered; Republicans in the Granite State chose a candidate opposed to discrimination based on sexual orientation. Log Cabin Republicans does not endorse in primaries and we still have a long way to go before either Party has a nominee, but tonight the people of New Hampshire should be commended for setting the tone of subsequent primaries by standing on the side of equality while the eyes of the nation were focused on them."
