A giant thank to all who came out to vote yesterday!You made a huge difference in the nation! Though we didn't get the local wins we wanted for Farmington, at the state level we gained the NH House, the NH Senate, and we have the Executive Council. Chris Pappas is now New Hampshire's first openly LGBTQ Congressperson.
Many progressive voices won at the local, state, and federal level. Many, many "firsts" came to be last night. many more people can see themselves in their elected officials! More people can vote! Celebrate with abandon. Reflect on our losses. Start getting ready for next time. The fight has just started!
