RAD NH Election Wins & Next Steps
In the midst of a particularly difficult year, the November 3rd elections in New Hampshire delivered some hard losses, but also some significant victories for our movement that it is important to lift up and celebrate.
Democracy Defenders Resources and Updates
We are just over a week away from the November 3rd election, and we wanted to provide a few resources and updates on pre- and post election news and events.
Tell Governor Sununu: Defend Our Democracy, Protect Our Elections & Save Our Court!
We are in a troubling time, and the future of our democracy is at stake. We are headed into a historic election that will shape our communities and impact our rights for years to come, and we are simultaneously facing a right-wing attempt to rush through the confirmation of an anti-choice, climate science questioning Supreme Court nominee.
RAD 2020 NH Voter’s Guide
This is a big election year, and there is a lot on the line for our country, our state and our democracy. We are hard at work mobilizing with our movement partners to defeat Trump so we can begin healing our communities, and it is just as important to show up for our New Hampshire state and district candidates.
Sununu: Protect Our Healthcare, Stop the SCOTUS Confirmation!
President Trump recently nominated Amy Coney Barrett to fill the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat on the US Supreme Court. We must not let this happen.
Barrett has a conservative voting record and has openly criticized the Affordable Care Act and Roe v. Wade. If appointed, she poses a serious threat to the healthcare and reproductive rights that Justice Ginsburg did so much to advance, and that generations of organizers and activists have fought so hard for.

Round Two: RAD Endorses an Additional 21 Candidates in NH State Races
From municipal boards to the presidency, we need movement champions in office at every level of government, who will advocate for the change we need and ensure that the communities most impacted by the multitude of crises confronting us, and whose voices have been excluded from decision-making spaces will be heard and included.

Good Trouble by Jean Lewandowski
We’re especially proud right now to be parents and grandparents. The Trump administration has finally gotten so out of hand, a Wall of Moms had to “stop this car” to intervene in Portland, Oregon.
The July Newsletter
With half of the year behind us, we’re looking towards what’s ahead with new energy. For us at RAD, June was about finding our balance in a wild spectrum of emotions and responses to the crises and movements escalating around us – a balance between introspection and action, leading and listening; and transitioning while staying still.
