Did Someone Mention 2026?

Recruitment starts now for the NH Senate and House. What should we look for in a candidate? What experience, what profession, what volunteer activities determine a competitive candidate? 

Thanks to Julian Sutcliff, Candidate Services Director, NHDP Democratic Victory Committee

From past elections we know the following types of candidates can be uniquely competitive in their district: 

  • mayors, selectboard members, or other local elected officials;
  • activists on high-visibility local issues such as education or environment;
  • veterans or first responders/family members;
  • retired educators or coaches;
  • well-known business owners;
  • doctors and nurses.

Know anyone?
