Timeline

1959

Raymond "Ray" Buckley (born 1959) is an American politician from the state of New Hampshire who currently serves as chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party.

Buckley previously served as President of the Association of State Democratic Chairs, and as a Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee.

1972

As a twelve-year-old in 1972, he was volunteering for the Ed Muskie primary presidential campaign.

By the age of fourteen, he was an acting town party chairman for the town of Canterbury, New Hampshire.

As a young man, he was taken under the wing of state party boss Chris Spirou, who mentored him.

In high school, he worked on the campaign of future President Jimmy Carter.

He was elected to the New Hampshire Democratic State Committee at the age of 18, and was elected treasurer of that body by the age of 21.

1981

Despite being leading the party to prominence, he has also been known to be at the center of several bitter intra-party feuds, including a 1981 attempt to impeach then Party Chair Richard Boyer and a divisive campaign for the top party spot in 1988 against Joe Grandmaison, which Buckley would lose.

1983

Vaillancourt and Buckley had been friends since 1983, and housemates until 1999, when Vaillancourt evicted Buckley for unknown reasons.

The relationship has been strained since then.

Vaillancourt later admitted he had no proof to back up his allegations.

1986

Buckley served 8 terms (1986–2004) as a member of the New Hampshire House of Representatives where he represented southern Manchester, and served as Party Whip in that body.

His first election to state office was in 1986, where he was elected to the General Court to represent Manchester's 8th ward.

As a state legislator, he served 18 years, many as the Party Whip.

1988

He was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention from New Hampshire in 1988, 1996, 2000, 2004 and 2008.

He campaigned for Michael Dukakis in 1988, and notably in 2003–2004, he was a member of Senator Joseph Lieberman's campaign staff.

His own personal vehicle, a Chrysler PT Cruiser decorated as the "JoeMobile", served as a prominent symbol for that campaign.

He is credited with leading his party to prominence in New Hampshire, a former Republican stronghold, although he has also been chastised for controversial fundraising efforts that have led to that rise.

1998

He has also been director of the NH Democratic Senate Caucus, and from 1998 to 2007 served as the City Democratic Chair for Manchester.

In 1998, he gained some notoriety when he led a delegation of N.H. House Democrats to walk out on a speech given by Newt Gingrich.

That same year, he also won the Lawrence O'Brien Award, an award given by the Democratic National Committee to its top party members.

1999

He served as the vice chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party from 1999 to March 2007, when he was elected as chair.

Buckley's first involvement in Democratic Party politics was at age eight, when he campaigned for a gubernatorial candidate by making homemade signs.

He successfully sponsored over 150 bills into law, including a 1999 repeal of the state's ban on adoption by homosexual couples, a repeal of state taxes on hospitals, and anti-bullying legislation.

2001

He is a member of the New Hampshire delegation to the Democratic National Committee, and served as the chairman of the eastern region of the Democratic National Committee from 2001 to 2009.

2002

In 2002, he gained additional national prominence when his party's phone lines were jammed by a Republican Party consulting firm.

While a legislator, he has also frequently worked on presidential campaigns for prominent Democratic candidates.

2004

Buckley left the New Hampshire House of Representatives in 2004 to run for the Executive Council of New Hampshire against incumbent Ray Wieczorek.

A bitter campaign ensued, fueled by a long political history.

The Republican Wieczorek had been the mayor of Manchester and Buckley had been an Alderman, and the two had fought frequently.

Buckley lost the election, but was immediately hired as the Executive Director of the Senate Democratic Caucus.

Under his campaign leadership, the Democratic Party gained control of the New Hampshire Senate, a situation that had only occurred for one and a half terms since the nineteenth century.

He is a prominent member of the state Gay Marriage Commission, attempting to reach a bi-partisan agreement on a hot-button issue.

2007

As of March 25, 2007 he is the state chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party.

Buckley was the frontrunner to become the chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party in 2007.

He temporarily ended his bid for chairman in January of that year, following allegations of possessing child pornography leveled by Buckley's former housemate, Rep. Steve Vaillancourt.

On January 19, 2007, the Manchester Union Leader reported that the New Hampshire Democratic Party has hired an attorney to investigate a separate set of allegations against Buckley.

The investigation was prompted by a letter that accuses Buckley of sexually harassing young male party staffers.

2009

Buckley was reelected state chair in 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2021.
