Update. We won both Coos 1 & 6 yesterday.
Rockingham 21 and Strafford 11 will be held on 03/12/2024. https://www.sos.nh.gov/elections/2023-2024-special-elections Potential special election coming up as R rep Troy Merner from Lancaster has resigned-ultimately due to residency issues brought to light by the usual suspects. Only candidate that has jumped in so far is a far left D Cathleen Fountain out of Dalton. If anyone knows any good candidates in those towns, they may want to look at jumping in if able to. This was the general election last year. Attached File All of this is pretty important as the House is basically an attendance game right now. Evenly matched, the no shows affect the vote. If Ds grab control, their is the potential for them to 'vote from home' on session days. Considering the Ds like non functioning humans this may sway things that way. Yes, we have the Senate, but it would be nice to keep both. Current House make up. Note how the special elections have gone--because the other side puts the word out. Attached File |

Paywalled and no easy way to break it. https://www.caledonianrecord.com/news/local/dalton-select-board-initiates-coos-1-special-election/article_7d311a08-e3c1-5566-8ef7-705088432b25.html
COOS COUNTY — The Dalton Select Board on Monday called for a special election to fill the vacant Coos 1 House seat by special election. The Select Board submitted a request to the Executive Council, which meets next on Oct. 4. In its request, the Dalton Select Board wrote, “We believe it is essential for Dalton, and for Coos County, to have full representation in the State House of Representatives as soon as possible.” Former Republican state Rep. Troy Merner resigned from the Coos 1 seat last week after an Attorney General’s Office investigation revealed he no longer lived in the district. The four-town district comprises Dalton, Lancaster, Northumberland, and Stratford. Under state law, once the Executive Council declares a special election, the primary would take place between two and two-and-a-half months later, and the special election would be held between three-and-a-half and four months later. If party nominations are not contested, the special election would occur on the primary date. There are provisions to hold the special election earlier or later, to coincide with a regularly scheduled election (such as the First In The Nation presidential primary). The Coos 1 House special election carries major implications for state politics. As of now, Republicans hold a 198-197 edge in the House of Representatives with three seats vacant. Democrats are heavily favored to win a Nashua special election in November, which would create an even split. That leaves two vacancies — Coos 1 (Dalton, Lancaster, Northumberland, Stratford) and Coos 6 (Gorham, Shelburne, Randolph) — to be filled in the coming months. Merner was a fourth-term state representative who won re-election in November 2022. He finished second in the three-way race for two Coos 1 House seats, edging third-place finisher Cathleen Fountain of Dalton, 1,380-1,110. Fountain, a Democrat, has already declared her candidacy for the special election. |

Coos District 1 and District 6 (Gorham, Shelburne area) will both have special elections on December 5th. If there is a primary challenge then the 5th will be a primary. If there's no primary challenge then the 5th will be a general election.

Safety First. Unless it gets in the way of fun. Then safety second.

Haven't heard if there is an R running yet for either of these districts.

Only update I have is this truncated article: https://www.caledonianrecord.com/news/local/field-set-for-coos-1-special-election/article_a09bdcbe-3ff1-5cd5-83b5-a663c20d9bad.html
The Record is absurdly locked down. NORTH COUNTRY — The field is set for the Coos 1 and Coos 6 House special elections. Both will have contested Republican primaries and could have statewide impacts. So tell, your friends, key dates are December 5 and January 23. Given the way things go, I wouldn't be surprised if someone drops out of the primary and December 5 becomes a general overnight. Important to vote in both! |

District 1: https://www.sos.nh.gov/elections/2023-special-elections/coos-county-district-1
Filings: Democratic: Cathleen A. Fountain, Dalton Republican: Sean C. Durkin, Northumberland Pamela J. Kathan, Dalton All I know is Fountain is a far left loon and Kathan is a former, maybe current, town moderator who supports bringing Casella in as the town is currently poor as heck. That's all I know. District 6 since it was brought up earlier. https://www.sos.nh.gov/elections/2023-special-elections/coos-county-district-6 Democratic: Edith Tucker, Randolph Republican: Don Lacasse, Gorham Michael P. Murphy, Gorham Edith Tucker and her fan club are vile pieces of human garbage. Former state rep, decided to run for senate and got beat despite slandering the heck out of Gendrau. |

NH certainly doesn't need more far left loons in office.

Not really planning on a running thread, but we tend to get creamed on the off cycle special elections.
Coos 1 and 6 went our way yesterday. Helped in part by the large R turnout in the primary. Two more special elections coming up in March. Rockingham County District 21 (March 12, 2024) Why are there no republicans on that? Strafford County District 11 (March 12, 2024) Attached File |

Made for TV drama they get to do every four years. The reporters outnumber the residents, lol. ETA: One thing i did note is they held it in a house instead of the Balsams and Otten is in the article saying it was undergoing renovations. Wonder if they'll ever open back up. |
