Quinn Mitchell is a 15-year-old aspiring journalist from New Hampshire. His passion for political journalism has led him to over 100 first-in-the-nation primary events, where he has asked numerous questions developed from hours of research. His always-respectful presence but pointed questions are often not appreciated. As Chris Christie jokingly puts it, some candidates consider him a "pain in the ass" and have even preemptively removed him from events. Quinn has been kicked out of events by police, physically intimidated, and called a "clown" and a "joke" by different presidential campaigns. Quinn assumes such titles as a badge of honor and tolerates his removals with good humor, but he strongly believes that his experiences highlight the fundamental and growing need for the people and the press to show up and demand truth from power.
