A Census Bureau survey and official vote counts agree: New Hampshire’s turnout trailed the national rate in every midterm from 1982 through 1998 and topped it in all 13 federal general elections from 2000 through 2024. The state enacted Election Day registration in 1994.
New Hampshire faces severe consequences from federal Medicaid cuts under the OBBBA, potentially leading to over one preventable death per week and increased medical debt. To mitigate this, the state must act by filling funding gaps, reforming Medicaid administration, strengthening subsidies, enhancing preventive care, and raising public awareness to protect vulnerable populations.
