It's very Libertarian. They are more liberal on social issues in that they don't care so much but don't take their money. Trump's nastiness is going to be pretty offensive for many of NH. Basically, NH is a lot like VT other than taxes. VT doesn't mind paying taxes, NH does. Both are cool with guns...big hunting states. Neither are outrageously bible thumpy religious and both are big on taking care of the environment while also wanting to be able to hunt, fish and go snowmobiling.
