New Hampshire Presidential Forecast lean dem

Last Updated: Monday, July 1 at 4:08 PM EDT

Our model currently predicts that Joe Biden has a 66% chance of winning New Hampshire.

A New England state dominated by moderate voters, New Hampshire primarily supported Republicans in presidential elections from the party's formation until 1988. Since the early 1990s, however, it has started leaning toward the Democrats at the presidential level. Democrats have carried the state by single digits in every election since 1992, except for George W. Bush's narrow victory in 2000. Joe Biden won New Hampshire by 7% in 2020, following Hillary Clinton’s razor-thin 0.3% victory in 2016. Given the close 2016 results and a competitive gubernatorial race expected in 2024, New Hampshire is considered a secondary battleground. However, the state has shown a stronger Democratic tilt at the federal level in recent years. New Hampshire's entirely Democratic congressional delegation won re-election by comfortable margins in 2022, despite the national Republican advantage that year.
