John,

Tonight, New Hampshire voters head to the polls for the first-in-the-nation primary election. And thanks to the generous support of small-dollar donors who have pitched in to support our newsrooms, Granite Post is on the ground covering the race.

Like many states, New Hampshire has been hit hard by shrinking news budgets and newsroom closures. (Two local papers even launched an initiative to train citizen journalists who could help with news reporting!) It’s an urgent crisis, and we’re proud that the Granite Post can help provide high-quality coverage to New Hampshire communities without access to trustworthy local news.

While the national media has obsessively covered the horse race between Nikki Haley and Donald Trump in the Republican primary, what’s happening on the Democratic side has been almost completely neglected. Neglected, that is by everyone BUT the Granite Post, whose team shared this surprising update over the weekend:

John, the Granite Post's coverage of this and other important local stories is only possible thanks to thousands of small-dollar contributions from people like you. We're on the ground reporting in 10 battleground states across the country. With the 2024 election now in full swing, our teams need your help now more than ever.

So John, if you want to support Democracy's Newsroom in the most important election of our lifetime, please pitch in $5 or any amount you can today.

Thank you,

The Courier Newsroom Team
