Leishman's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[15]

Right-To-Work: "Peter supports Governor Lynch’s veto of the Right to Work bill (HB 474). The debate is clearly driven by national outside interest groups and has not been an issue for either New Hampshire businesses or workers."

Marriage Equality: "Peter believes Marriage Equality is a civil right that protect individuals’ freedom from unwarranted infringement by government and private organizations."

The 2011-2012 Budget: "This budget will and already has had a devastating impact on our State hospitals. The combination of new taxes on hospitals and other program cuts total more than $250M... These cuts will harm New Hampshire’s long-term economic development and ability to recruit new businesses. Additionally, the budget cut millions of dollars from domestic violence programs, mental health services, and childcare."

Abortion Rights: "Peter supports a woman’s right to choose."

Local Education Funding: "Peter does not support a constitutional amendment that would return more if not all of the responsibility of funding our local public schools to the towns and cities."
