2026 NH Governor Ballot

The following results are based on 542 completed interviews among a statewide random sample of registered voters in New Hampshire (185 Republicans, 161 Democrats, and 196 undeclared voters). The interviews were conducted September 21 through 29, 2026.

The theoretical margin of error for the sample of 542 registered voters is plus or minus 4.2 percentage points, 95% of the time, on questions where opinion is evenly split.

As a reminder, these results are based on interviews with registered voters and not likely voters.
