She believes it&rsquo;s important to participate early in the presidential campaign process, and plans to talk to as many candidates for president as she can while they&rsquo;re in the Granite State. <br><br>One of her top concerns in this election is spiraling health care costs. Peg knows the fear of being one paycheck away from losing her health care coverage, since that coverage is tied to her job. She&rsquo;s 42 years old and has lived in New Hampshire for 22 years. <a class="offsite-link-inline" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/seiu/" target="_blank">More photos&#8230;</a></p>  Learn more about Peg&#8217;s life and the time she spent with SEIU President Andy Stern by watching this video:
