The New Hampshire Democratic Convention saw Hillary Rodham Clinton at her fiery and partisan best as the former Secretary of State tried to win over more than 3,500 party activists and elected officials gathered for the state party's annual convention.

For about 45 minutes, Clinton tried to project herself as the ideal contender for Democrats eager to retain control of the White House, urging party workers and activists to look beyond primary divisions.

Clinton who boasts of millions in her campaign account and is a front-runner nationally, is trailing in surveys in Iowa and New Hampshire, the first two states to vote. "I will proudly carry forward this record of Democratic achievement. We know what works and what doesn't," she told the party activists during the convention on Saturday, reports The Herald Tribune.

"Fifteen candidates, five hours and not a single fighter for the middle class. Republicans are not just deeply inaccurate, they're increasingly out of touch and out of date," said Clinton, criticizing the recent three-hour Republican debate. She said that the Republicans were not interested in finding solutions rather they were focusing on problems the country faces, according to Times of Israel.

But Republican front-runner Donald Trump faced the blunt of Clinton's wrath when she accused him of "trafficking in prejudice and paranoia."

"By the way Donald, when you say you cherish women, that really doesn't make it any better. Why don't you stop cherishing women and start respecting women," Clinton said, according to The Daily Mail.

The early primary state convention was over run by Clinton supporters who handed out hundreds of t-shirts, posters and noisemakers.
