Rob Gronkowski Refutes Claims of Turning Point USA Affiliation at New Hampshire Polls
The former Patriots tight end said his appearance at New Hampshire voting sites was unrelated to Turning Point USA and criticized media portrayals of the visit.
Rob Gronkowski said his presence at New Hampshire polling locations on Election Day was not part of a Turning Point USA effort. In an Instagram story, the former Patriots tight end wrote that he and his girlfriend, Camille Kostek, stopped at Goffstown High School, greeted fans, took photos and signed items before moving on.
"We are not endorsed by or affiliated with Turning Point USA," Gronkowski said, adding that they photographed people across the political spectrum and could not control how media presented the images.
He described the coverage as "false narratives" that stripped the moment of context. The clarification follows reports by WMUR that Gronkowski, along with other celebrities, visited polling sites as part of Turning Point Action’s voter-turnout campaign. Gronkowski is in New England ahead of his induction into the Patriots Hall of Fame scheduled for November 7 at Gillette Stadium.
