“Alex was an exceptionally skilled champion for the rule of law and the importance of fair and honest elections. We will forever honor Alex’s selfless dedication and profound contributions to our shared vision of liberty through legal processes,” the state director for the New Hampshire chapter of the Republican National Lawyers Association William O’Brien said.
“His legacy will undoubtedly inspire future generations within the RNLA and the greater legal community," he added.
Talcott was previously the leader of the state Republican legal group, leaving a deep impact in the organization and leaving friends in shock over his tragic death.
“He always wanted to do more and he was very helpful. He wanted to help. He came to me many times just asking, ‘Hey Chris, how can I help?’ Never asking for anything in return. He was that kind of person. We’re really going to miss him a lot,” colleague Chris Ager noted.
The death has currently been ruled a homicide, with investigators continuing to seek details in the case. His friends and fellow conservatives in New Hampshire now seek to make sense of the situation and hope that the person involved in the death is brought to justice.
