Al Turcotte

Al Turcotte is a former New Hampshire state representative running to flip a seat in the New Hampshire House in November. Al is a retired employee of the New Hampshire Department of Transportation and has served as a supervisor for the Allenstown Transfer Station. During her previous terms in the state legislature, Al worked to support strong public schools, expand access to affordable health care and housing, and protect workers’ right to collective bargaining. If she is elected this year, Al will return to Concord as a strong champion for a clean environment, safer communities, and working families across New Hampshire.

In 2024, Al came just 54 votes short of reelection in one of the year’s closest races. Now, with the DLCC’s support, she’s back to reclaim this seat and help build a Democratic majority in the New Hampshire House.

2026 is a historic opportunity to flip both chambers of the New Hampshire legislature.

Current GOP House and Senate majorities in New Hampshire have used their power to green-light Trump’s disastrous agenda at the state level, pushing attacks on civil liberties and voting rights, gutting public school funding, and turning a blind eye to the affordability crisis squeezing working families from all sides.

Over the last several cycles, the DLCC has helped New Hampshire Democrats win key races and keep majorities within striking distance in 2026. As we approach Election Day, Democrats need a 5-seat gain to win the majority in the state Senate, and a roughly 23-seat gain to win a majority in the 400-seat state House. 

Flipping both chambers would create a powerful firewall protecting Granite Staters from the most harmful aspects of MAGA extremism. With every seat in both legislative chambers on the ballot this year, now is the time to rally behind the most competitive Democratic candidates and send a blue wave across New Hampshire.
