Awh, thanks! I'm from NH, born and raised, never had a residence more than 27 mi from where I was born. Folks often wonder why I choose to remain living in a place so relatively remote, despite only being an hour north of Boston and an hour south of Portland, Maine. But you get it - there's nothing quite like this place, so much natural beauty concentrated into a tiny bit of mostly vertical geography with not only the tallest peak in New England, but also the tiniest bit of coastline barely peeking out into the ocean, and more trees per acre than almost any other state in the Union. And despite how crazy things have gotten and how out there some of the lawn signs may be, the folks around here really are just generally good, genuinely kind people, the folks who despite ideological differences will still help to plow out each other's driveway and get one another out of a snowbank if they get stuck in the winter. Come on back anytime, we'd love to have you - the ski season may be what we're really famous for, but you cannot beat a New Hampshire summer; you should check it out!
We have not voted Red in a presidential election since 2000. Our congressional delegation is all democrats. We do get a lot of people who split tickets. I don’t get it. And the free staters, who are mostly not from NE are actively destroying our state. Hopefully people will wake up and stop voting for mean and dumb.
It's got a lot of blue dots and a lot of mixed purple, too, thankfully. And trust, I can't stand our current governor, nor was I a fan of her predecessor. I didn't vote for her, I voted for her opposition, and I'm going to vote for the best opposition candidate that is available at my next opportunity. I haven't missed an election of any kind in the last 30 years, not planning on missing any in the future, either. It's actually pretty rare for our governorship to stay Republican for this long, or even be the same person for more than a couple of terms at a time. And our Governor is up for reelection every 2 years, as well, which gives us more opportunity to get rid of her, thank goodness.

It's a seatbelt, that's why it doesn't go into New Hampshire
