New Hampshire

In 2017, Let America Vote sent a rapid response team to help elect Joyce Craig the next Mayor of Manchester. Our team knocked on over 9,400 doors to help flip this seat for the first time in nearly a decade.Earlier in 2017, Let America Vote endorsed several successful candidates for the state legislature with digital ads. We helped flip two state house districts by electing Charlie St. Clair and Edie DesMarais, while successfully holding the competitive 16th Senate District by running digital ads to help elect elect of Kevin Cavanaugh.

In 2018, Let America Vote knocked 80,681 doors and made 58,394 calls helping to flip two dozen state legislative seats in New Hampshire. Let America Vote’s boots-on-the-ground team was integral to helping flip New Hampshire’s House and Senate — ending the Republican trifecta which was responsible for passing two voter-suppression bills in 2017 and 2018.
