State Candidates Fall 2020 | Stratham Library

State and local elections have a direct impact on our everyday lives and our local officials are accessible and part of our communities, making these races some of the most important on the general election ballot.

In November 2020, Stratham will be voting for an Executive Councilor in District 3, a NH State Senator in District 24, two NH State representatives in District 19, and one in District 36. You may not be familiar with all of the candidates, but there's still time to learn more! Below are links to each candidate's website or social media page. Incumbents also have State General Court pages that link to their voting record. Most candidates are happy to hear from constituents!
