While I respect everyone’s opinion in the responses, and good points have been made, they all seem to be anecdotes. I even have some ideas of my own.

But, I wonder if anyone has any hard data. I think that would be a lot more interesting.

I wonder if there’s any demographic data available. Something that would mark NH left/right voters by age, whether they were born in NH or moved in from elsewhere (and if so, their reason for their move), whether or not they voted for a different party/policies 10 years ago, etc.

The hard data is there are 400 billionaires playing with our lives. And we the people are losing badly

That sounds more like an opinion. I respect your opinion, but do you have any data that answers the actual question?

That is hard data. Look at how much money was spent in politics today versus 20 years ago. I heard on the news that over a billion dollars was spent by both sides on just a top five Senate races. In a midterm. So 2 billion on 5 races.

You know they hedge their bets and actually give money to both sides right? They're on one side the money side. Which is great for money. but not so great for people.
