Merrimack, Meet Your Candidates

Mary Beth Raven

State Representative Candidate

“Leadership at the State House has become unduly influenced by billionaires and their think tanks (such as the Koch Network). I'm running for State Representative to ensure that the voices of Merrimack are listened to and acted on, rather than the voices of big money.”

Matthew Brown

State Representative Candidate

“As the son of small business owners, I know what hard work looks like. In Concord, I'll fight for affordability, public education, and bipartisan solutions.”

Wendy Thomas

State Representative Candidate

“If you send me back to Concord, I'll keep doing what I've always done: I'll tell you the truth, I'll ask the hard questions, and I'll stand up when others stay silent. Whether I'm fighting for fully funded public schools to ease the property tax burden, protecting our drinking water from PFAS, defending our communities from reckless development, or holding those in power accountable, my compass has never changed. Public service isn't about politics, it's about having the courage to do what's right, even when it's difficult.”

Rosemarie Rung

State Representative Candidate

“For 8 years, serving Merrimack has been my top priority as your state representative. Today, that means fighting for lower property taxes and energy costs, affordable childcare, and healthcare no one is denied. With your support, I'll keep tackling what's best for our town.”

Marc Nozell

“I'm running because democracy isn't a spectator sport. I want to advocate for Merrimack families by lowering property taxes, protecting our schools, and making sure our kids can actually afford to stay in the community that raised them”

Heather Robitaille

“I'm running for State Representative because Merrimack deserves leadership that listens and works together to solve the challenges facing Granite Staters. My priorities are property tax relief through fair public school funding and ensuring taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly to build a brighter future for New Hampshire families.”

Nancy Murphy

"NH residents and small business owners are paying for what happens when the state reduces/ eliminates its support for education, human services, infrastructure, and public safety; and local governments must raise revenue—primarily through the property tax—to maintain essential services. Your vote will allow me to return to Concord to fight against these unsustainable cost burdens to property taxpayers; protect public health, education, and the environment; and pass policy that truly meets the needs; improves the lives; and protects the wallets of Merrimack residents."

Rebecca Boutin

“I’m a small business owner, mom of four, and lifelong worker since age 15. I know what Merrimack families are up against because I live it every day. I’m running for State Representative because affordability shouldn’t depend on your tax bracket. Being able to afford your home, your groceries, and your life is a human right, and it’s time we finally act for ourselves!”

Shannon Chandley

State Senate Candidate

“A government of, by, and for the people works best when we elect leaders who demonstrate integrity, accountability, and a willingness to serve others. I am committed to listening to voters, working with all who come to the table, solving problems, and always putting our community first.”

Melanie Levesque

Armed with business and legislative experience, Melanie is running to ensure state and federal funds are used to protect the values of the people of New Hampshire. Focused on strong public education, healthcare, and good governance, Melanie will show up, stand up, and speak up for our communities.
