2020 Election Candidates

We are proud to announce the seven candidates for the office of 2021 New Hampshire’s Kid Governor! The statewide election took place between November 2nd and November 10th, 2020.

The candidates were nominated by the 5th graders in their schools and completed the necessary paperwork qualifying them to run for office.

Each candidate created a campaign video (below) outlining why he or she wanted to be New Hampshire’s Kid Governor; what leadership qualities he/she has; what community issue is important to him or her and why; and a three-point plan outlining ways for New Hampshire fifth graders to make a difference around that issue.
