All eyes will be on New Hampshire Tuesday, when the state holds the nation's first primary of the political season.

Students in a St. Olaf College political science class have been in the thick of the presidential campaign in New Hampshire. For the past couple of weeks, they've been in that state volunteering for presidential candidates.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer talked with Alex Cutler, who has been with Barack Obama's campaign, and Matt Gallagher, who has been with John McCain's campaign.
