Quarterly Survey – December 2024

The following results are based on 600 completed interviews among a statewide random sample of adults in New Hampshire. Of the 600 interviews, 543 interviews were among registered voters (180 Republicans, 153 Democrats, and 210 undeclared voters). The interviews were conducted December 15 through 19, 2024.

The theoretical margin of error for the sample of 543 registered voters is plus or minus 4.2 percentage points, 95% of the time, on questions where opinion is evenly split.
