Pembroke NH Democrats
We strive to...
- Help people understand what local representatives responsibilities are and what they’re doing (or not doing) for you, and to share knowledge about what is happening with the NH budget, and our local economic opportunities.
- Work hard to bring our neighbors together, in understanding and working towards building our community for the better, through efforts to negate the negative effects of the current administration.
- Find skilled and driven representatives to assist and support for 2026 local runs, and to bring resources, engagement, and awareness, to all those interested and able to represent our party at any level. Those interested in protecting and developing the values we seek to provide our constituents.
