Governor/Executive Council

Critical campaigns are underway this year that will affect Strafford's representation in the Governor's office and on the Executive Council. Show your support by writing letters to the editor, placing yard signs, and getting involved in campaign outreach.

Dr. Tom Sherman, Democrat for Governor

Picture
Dr. Tom Sherman has dedicated his life to service, from working as an EMT in high school, to designing a clinic in a homeless shelter while in med school, and then working more than 30 years as a doctor. His priorities as governor include lowering costs and protecting the freedom to choose. 

​As the NH State Senate’s only doctor, Senator Sherman has been a leader for public health in Concord. Working with members of both parties, he has helped expand health coverage to more than 50,000 Granite Staters, lowered prescription drug costs, instituted the toughest clean water standards in the country to protect our firefighters and drinking water, and increased the number of beds available for people in a mental health crisis. He’s worked to deliver help to small businesses impacted by COVID and connect them to the workers they needed. In leadership and as a member of more than 16 statutory commissions and committees, he has kept his promise to address the challenges of the mental health crisis, the opioid crisis, and the issue of environmental and drinking water contamination.

Dr. Sherman is running for Governor because we need someone who will focus on finding solutions and building a thriving economy that works for all Granite Staters. Too many families know what it’s like to question how you’re going to afford child care, or pay a medical bill, or cover housing and utilities each month. As your Governor, helping those families will be his top priority each and every day. Learn more about Dr. Sherman's campaign at ​​drtomsherman.com or email nikolas@drtomsherman.com.
