Heading into the 2020 elections, Democrats had a 230-156 majority, with one Libertarian House member and 13 vacant seats. All 400 seats were up in 2020. Republicans gained a net 57 seats and Democrats lost a net 43 seats, leaving Republicans with a 213-187 majority. A 267-seat majority is required to override a governor's veto in New Hampshire. As of 2020, the 400 members represented 204 districts--105 single-member districts and 99 multi-member districts that had between two and 11 members. Ballotpedia identified 110 of the districts, representing 249 seats, as battlegrounds. * Click here to see all of the general election matchups * Click here to read more about the battleground races Forty-seven of the battleground races were in single-member districts, with 27 held by Democrats and 20 held by Republicans. Sixty-three of the battleground races were in multi-member districts, with 24 held solely by Democrats, 19 held solely by Republicans, and 20 split between the parties. Heading into the election, New Hampshire had been under a divided government since 2018, when Democrats flipped the state Senate and House. Before 2018, New Hampshire had been governed by a Republican trifecta since 2017, when Gov. Chris Sununu (R) was elected. The last Democratic trifecta in New Hampshire formed after the 2006 elections and lasted until 2010. Heading into the 2020 elections, Republicans held a majority in more chambers than Democrats. There was a Republican majority in 59 chambers and a Democratic majority in 39 chambers. In the Alaska House, there was a power-sharing agreement between the parties as part of a coalition. New Hampshire's 2020 gubernatorial and state legislative elections affected partisan control of redistricting following the 2020 census. In New Hampshire, the state legislature is responsible for drafting both congressional and state legislative district plans. District plans are subject to gubernatorial veto. The New Hampshire House of Representatives was one of 86 state legislative chambers holding elections in 2020. There are 99 chambers throughout the country. In 2018, 87 out of 99 legislative chambers held elections. This election was a battleground race. Other 2020 battlegrounds included: * Illinois' 3rd Congressional District election, 2020 (March 17 Democratic primary) * Kentucky's 4th Congressional District election, 2020 (June 23 Republican primary) * Maine's 2nd Congressional District election, 2020 | ## Contents * 1 Election procedure changes in 2020 * 2 Party control * 3 Districts * 4 Candidates * 5 General election candidates * 6 Primary candidates * 6.1 2020 battleground chamber * 6.2 Battleground races * 6.3 Incumbents who were not re-elected * 6.3.1 Incumbents defeated in the general election * 6.3.2 Incumbents defeated in primary elections * 6.3.3 Retiring incumbents * 6.4 Redistricting in New Hampshire * 6.5 Process to become a candidate * 6.5.1 For party candidates * 6.5.2 For nonparty candidates * 6.5.3 For write-in candidates * 6.5.4 2020 ballot access requirements * 6.5.5 Qualifications * 6.5.6 Salaries and per diem * 6.5.7 When sworn in * 6.6 2020 battleground chamber * 6.7 New Hampshire political history * 6.7.1 Trifectas * 6.7.2 Presidential politics in New Hampshire * 6.7.2.1 2016 Presidential election results * 6.8 Voter information * 6.8.1 How the primary works * 6.8.2 Poll times * 6.8.3 Registration requirements * 6.8.4 Automatic registration * 6.8.5 Online registration * 6.8.6 Same-day registration * 6.8.7 Residency requirements * 6.8.8 Verification of citizenship * 6.8.9 Verifying your registration * 6.8.10 Voter ID requirements * 6.8.10.1 Background * 6.8.11 Early voting * 6.8.12 Absentee voting * 6.9 Voter guides * 6.10 See also * 6.11 External links * 6.12 Footnotes ## Election procedure changes in 2020[edit] See also: Changes to election dates, procedures, and administration in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, 2020 Ballotpedia provided comprehensive coverage of how election dates and procedures changed in 2020.

Click here for more information on state legislative battlegrounds. What was at stake? * Republicans needed to gain 36 seats to take control of the chamber in 2020. * Heading into the 2020 elections, New Hampshire was under divided government with neither party holding a trifecta. Democrats controlled both chambers of the state legislature while Republicans controlled the governorship. All three trifecta components were up for election in 2020. Both parties had a chance to gain a trifecta by winning all three components. Why was it a battleground? * Seats needed to flip: Republicans needed to flip 34 of the 400 seats up (9%) in order to win a majority. * Seats decided by 10% or less in 2018: In the 2018 elections, control of 302 seats (76% of the chamber) was decided by a margin of 10% or smaller. * Seats flipped in 2018: In the 2018 elections, 71 seats (18% of the chamber) changed partisan control. * More seats flipped in 2018 than needed to change control in 2020: More seats flipped in 2018 (71) than would need to flip to change control of the chamber in 2020 (34). * 2018 battleground chamber: In 2018, the New Hampshire House of Representatives was a battleground chamber. That year, Democrats gained 62 seats from Republicans and one from a Libertarian, winning control of the chamber. Republicans gained six seats from Democrats and two from Libertarians. Click here to read more about the 2018 elections. * Other 2020 battleground election: The 2020 election for governor of New Hampshire was a battleground race. Click here for more on the 2020 gubernatorial election. * History of recent flips: Control of the New Hampshire House of Representatives flipped four times between 2010 and 2020. Republicans gained a majority in 2010, followed by Democrats in 2012, Republicans again in 2014, and Democrats again in 2018. * Race ratings: The Cook Political Report rated the New Hampshire House of Representatives a leans Democratic chamber in 2020, meaning that both parties had a good chance at winning control of the chamber but that Democrats were slightly favored to retain control.[2] ## Battleground races[edit] Going into the 2020 election, Ballotpedia identified 110 battleground races in the New Hampshire State House, representing 249 seats. Forty-seven of those seats were in single-member districts and 202 were in multi-member districts. Based on analysis of these districts' electoral histories, these races had the potential to be more competitive than other races and could have led to shifts in the chamber's partisan balance. Single-member districts Heading into the 2020 elections, the partisan breakdown for the 47 New Hampshire House single-member district battlegrounds was: 27 seats 20 seats To determine state legislative battleground races in 2020, Ballotpedia looked for races that fit one or more of the four factors listed below: 1. In the last state legislative election, the winner received less than 55% of the vote. 2. The presidential candidate who won the district in 2016 is of a different party than the most recent state legislative election winner in the district, and the most recent state legislative election winner won by a margin of 10 percentage points or less. 3. The presidential candidate who won the district in 2016 is of a different party than the most recent state legislative election winner in the district, and the incumbent is not on the ballot this year. 4. The presidential candidate who won the district in 2016 is of a different party than the most recent state legislative election winner in the district, and that presidential candidate won the district by a margin of 20 percentage points or more. 2020 New Hampshire House multi-member battlegrounds District | Democrat | Republican | 2018 margin of victory | 2016 presidential result | Incumbent running? | Conditions met New Hampshire House of Representatives Belknap 1 | Robert Joseph Jr. | Tom Ploszaj | R+7.9 | R+10.9 | No | 1 New Hampshire House of Representatives Belknap 9 | Charlie St. Clair (i) | Travis O'Hara | D+0.4 | R+16.4 | Yes | 1,2 New Hampshire House of Representatives Carroll 1 | Anita Burroughs (i) | Ray Gilmore (R) | D+8.8 | D+22.2 | Yes | 1 New Hampshire House of Representatives Cheshire 14 | Andrew Maneval (D) | Matthew Santonastaso (R) | D+1.7 | R+2.2 | No | 1,2,3 New Hampshire House of Representatives Coos 2 | Christopher Roberge (D) | Arnold Davis (R) | D+97.6 | R+17.7 | No | 3 New Hampshire House of Representatives Coos 4 | Evalyn Merrick | Kevin Craig (i) | R+0.3 | R+13.1 | Yes | 1 New Hampshire House of Representatives Coos 7 | Gregor Stocks (D) | Troy Merner (i) | R+6 | R+12.6 | Yes | 1 New Hampshire House of Representatives Grafton 11 | Timothy Josephson (i) | Beth Folsom (R) | D+5.8 | R+5.6 | Yes | 1,2 New Hampshire House of Representatives Grafton 14 | Elaine French (i) | Matthew Simon (R) | D+7.4 | D+0.9 | Yes | 1 New Hampshire House of Representatives Grafton 15 | Ed Rajsteter (D) | David W.

Click here for more information on state legislative battlegrounds. What was at stake? * Republicans needed to gain 36 seats to take control of the chamber in 2020. * Heading into the 2020 elections, New Hampshire was under divided government with neither party holding a trifecta. Democrats controlled both chambers of the state legislature while Republicans controlled the governorship. All three trifecta components were up for election in 2020. Both parties had a chance to gain a trifecta by winning all three components. Why was it a battleground? * Seats needed to flip: Republicans needed to flip 34 of the 400 seats up (9%) in order to win a majority. * Seats decided by 10% or less in 2018: In the 2018 elections, control of 302 seats (76% of the chamber) was decided by a margin of 10% or smaller. * Seats flipped in 2018: In the 2018 elections, 71 seats (18% of the chamber) changed partisan control. * More seats flipped in 2018 than needed to change control in 2020: More seats flipped in 2018 (71) than would need to flip to change control of the chamber in 2020 (34). * 2018 battleground chamber: In 2018, the New Hampshire House of Representatives was a battleground chamber. That year, Democrats gained 62 seats from Republicans and one from a Libertarian, winning control of the chamber. Republicans gained six seats from Democrats and two from Libertarians.

Click here for more on the 2020 gubernatorial election. * History of recent flips: Control of the New Hampshire House of Representatives flipped four times between 2010 and 2020. Republicans gained a majority in 2010, followed by Democrats in 2012, Republicans again in 2014, and Democrats again in 2018. * Race ratings: The Cook Political Report rated the New Hampshire House of Representatives a leans Democratic chamber in 2020, meaning that both parties had a good chance at winning control of the chamber but that Democrats were slightly favored to retain control.[16] ## New Hampshire political history[edit] ### Trifectas[edit] A state government trifecta is a term that describes single-party government, when one political party holds the governor's office and has majorities in both chambers of the legislature in a state government. New Hampshire Party Control: 1992-2021 Four years of Democratic trifectas • Ten years of Republican trifectas Scroll left and right on the table below to view more years.

They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. New Hampshire uses a semi-closed primary system. Unaffiliated voters may vote in the primary, but in order to do so, they have to choose a party before voting. This changes their status from unaffiliated to affiliated with that party unless they fill out a card to return to undeclared status.[17][18][19][20] ### Poll times[edit] In New Hampshire, polling place hours of operation vary. According to state law, polling places must be open between 11:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Localities may set their own polling hours as long as they are open during those hours prescribed by state law.[21] To search for the hours your polling place is open, click here. ### Registration requirements[edit] To register to vote in New Hampshire, each applicant must be a citizen of the United States, an inhabitant of New Hampshire, and at least 18 years old by the next election. Individuals may register to vote at the local clerk's office, with the community's supervisors of the checklist or registrar of voters, or at the polling place on the day of the election. Applicants must fill out a voter registration form and either show proof of identity and citizenship or sign an affidavit witnessed by an election official.[22][23] Absentee registration is allowed for those who are “unable to register in person because of physical disability, religious beliefs, military service, or because of temporary absence.” Absentee registration requires mailing a voter registration form and witnessed absentee voter registration affidavit to the local clerk.[22] ### Automatic registration[edit] New Hampshire does not practice automatic voter registration. ### Online registration[edit] See also: Online voter registration New Hampshire does not permit online voter registration. ### Same-day registration[edit] New Hampshire allows same-day voter registration. ### Residency requirements[edit] In New Hampshire, citizens can register to vote the day they move to the state.[22] ### Verification of citizenship[edit] See also: Laws permitting noncitizens to vote in the United States New Hampshire requires prospective voters to either provide proof of citizenship or sign an affidavit in order to register to vote. ### Verifying your registration[edit] The New Hampshire Secretary of State’s office allows residents to check their voter registration status online by visiting this website. ### Voter ID requirements[edit] New Hampshire requires voters to present photo identification while voting.[24] The following list of accepted ID was current as of November 2019. Click here for the New Hampshire Secretary of State page on accepted ID to ensure you have the most current information. * Driver's license issued by any state or the federal government * Photo ID card issued by the motor vehicles division, department, agency, or office of any other state * United States armed services identification card * United States passport or passcard * Valid student identification card issued by a college, university, or career school in New Hampshire * Valid student ID from a public high school in New Hampshire * Valid student ID from a nonpublic high school in New Hampshire Additionally, a poll worker may verify the voter’s identity. If anyone authorized to challenge a voter objects to the poll worker’s verification, the voter would have to complete a challenged voter affidavit.[24] Voters without proper photo identification can complete a challenged voter affidavit. A poll worker will take a photo of the voter and attach it to the affidavit. The voter may then cast a regular ballot. If the voter objects to being photographed for religious reasons, he or she can complete an affidavit of religious exemption, which will be attached to the challenged voter affidavit.[24] #### Background[edit] As of April 2021, 35 states enforced (or were scheduled to begin enforcing) voter identification requirements. A total of 21 states required voters to present photo identification at the polls; the remainder accepted other forms of identification. Valid forms of identification differ by state. Commonly accepted forms of ID include driver's licenses, state-issued identification cards, and military identification cards.[25][26] ### Early voting[edit] New Hampshire does not permit early voting. As of April 2021, 38 states and the District of Columbia permitted early voting. Early voting permits citizens to cast ballots in person at a polling place prior to an election. In states that permit early voting, a voter does not have to provide an excuse for being unable to vote on election day. States that do not permit early voting still permit some or all citizens to vote early by mail—often known as absentee voting. Some states allow no-excuse absentee voting, while others require an excuse. States that allow in-person absentee voting without an excuse are counted among early voting states. Click here for early voting laws by state.[27] ### Absentee voting[edit] A voter is eligible to vote absentee in an election if he or she cannot make it to the polls on Election Day for one of the following reasons:[28] * The voter will be absent from his or her polling location on the day of the election. * The voter is unable to visit the polls because of the observance of a religious commitment. * The voter is unable to visit the polls because of a physical disability. * The voter is unable to visit the polls because of an employment obligation. * The voter is unable to visit the polls due to military service. There is no specific deadline to apply for an absentee ballot. The completed ballot must be returned either in person by 5:00 p.m. the day before the election or by mail. If returned by mail, the ballot must be received by 5:00 p.m. on Election Day.[28] ## Voter guides[edit] 2020 State Cannabis Voter Guides ## See also[edit] * New Hampshire House of Representatives * New Hampshire State Legislature * State legislative elections, 2020 ## External links[edit] | Suggest a link | * New Hampshire State Legislature ## Footnotes[edit] 1. ↑ New Hampshire Secretary of State, "See Who's Filed," accessed June 16, 2020 2. ↑ The Cook Political Report, "July Update: Handicapping the 2020 State Legislature Races," July 22, 2020 3. ↑ Ballotpedia defines an incumbent as retiring if the incumbent did not file for office or filed for office but withdrew, was disqualified, or otherwise left a race in a manner other than losing the primary, primary runoff, or convention.
