Results from the March 2012 Quarterly New Hampshire Poll are now available. NH residents rate NH business conditions, their personal finances, John Lynch, and Barack Obama.

The first New Hampshire Poll was completed over 35 years ago and while the political players in the state have changed, the major issues have not. In December 1976, concern over high property taxes was the most important problem facing the state and voters were opposed to a state sales tax and a state income tax. Voters were also opposed to state-run gambling. For a look back at some of the numbers and players, go to December 1976.
