Option 2.

Anyway, I’ve been asking myself this since Nov. 8, 2016. The Clintons are beloved in the state, Democrats did extremely will even in 2014, they consider Trump a misogynist, etc. When I realized how close it really was on election night, I knew Trump had already won the entire election.


I have a feeling that New Hampshire being a college educated bastion who likes more respectable candidates was overstated. A lot of people in New Hampshire are middle class but on 2016 exit polls the amount of people who said the economy was not good+poor was 56%.

Plus a lot of suburbanites in the state came from Massachusetts to escape higher taxes there and were going to vote for trump just because of his promise to lower taxes even if they were college grads.

Plus the margin of those who said trump was untrustworthy was -26 but for hillary it was -28 meanwhile hassan had a favorable rating of +3 and ayotte was -4.
