Career

edit

Deshaies was a full-time political contractor, working for candidates throughout NH. Deshaies also served as the Wolfeboro delegate to the Republican State Convention, Vice-Chairman of the Winnipesaukee Republicans, and Executive Director of the Saint Anselm College Republicans.[6]

On September 13, 2022, Deshaies lost his seat in the Republican primary, after he was targeted by anti-abortion groups for co-authoring and co-sponsoring a bill that created an exception to New Hampshire's 24-week abortion ban for fatal fetal anomalies.[7]
