Dear Friends,
We are now just five months away from Election Day, and the momentum across State Senate District 7 is growing stronger every day.
As I travel through our communities and meet with residents from every corner of the district, I continue to hear a common theme. People love where they live. They are deeply invested in their towns, committed to their neighbors, and dedicated to keeping our communities strong, vibrant, and thriving.
Every day, I’m inspired by the strength of the people who call District 7 home. Time and again, we show up for one another. We understand a simple truth: our communities are better when we work together. That spirit of service to each other is at the heart of this campaign.
This campaign is about building more resilient communities across Senate District 7. It is about ensuring that our state government creates policies that strengthen local economies, support families and seniors, and preserve the New Hampshire values we hold dear. Together, we can build a future where common sense guides our decisions, communities have the resources they need to thrive, and New Hampshire remains a place we are proud to call home for generations to come.
Thank you for your support, your encouragement, and your commitment to our communities. I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Harned
Our Progress
Together, we have an opportunity this November to bring new leadership to District 7 and contribute to a State Senate that puts our families and communities first. Thanks to your support, our campaign is off to a strong start. Now, we need your help to keep that momentum growing.
There are many ways to get involved. Join us at one of our upcoming community events, volunteer your time, host a conversation with friends and neighbors, or help spread our message throughout the district. Every conversation matters, and there is a place for everyone on this team.
Would you consider making a contribution of $50 today?
Every donation—whether it's $25, $50, $100, or more — is an investment in a more affordable future for District 7.
Thank you for your support, your encouragement, and your belief in what we can accomplish together. We are moving our mission forward one conversation, one volunteer, and one donation at a time—and we're grateful to do it with you.
Our Events:

Andover House Party
On Sunday, May 3rd—exactly six months before Election Day—I spoke with voters in the heart of Senate District 7 about the issues that matter most: rising property taxes, strong public education, and affordable housing for all stages of life.
We shared practical strategies and exchanged ideas for reducing reliance on local property taxes to fund public education and essential services. This is the community leadership and engagement needed to build a brighter future for all Granite Staters.

Henniker House Party
Many thanks to everyone who joined us in Henniker for a thoughtful evening of conversation and community. I’m especially grateful to our hosts, Rusty and Christopher, for opening their home for neighbors to come together and discuss the issues facing our region and our state.
In the Community
Webster Annual Community Breakfast

So glad to serve Webster at the Webster Democrats' 4th Annual Community Breakfast! It was wonderful to see neighbors coming together to support the Webster Food Pantry and celebrate great food, local traditions, community spirit, and even a little whitewater excitement on the Blackwater River. A huge thank you to all the volunteers, especially Jen Buck and Jane Difley, who made this event possible.
Events like this are a great reminder of the generosity and sense of community that make New Hampshire such special places to call home.
Franklin Community Day

Franklin knows how to build community! I was honored to participate in Franklin’s Community Day on Saturday, May 9 -- a celebration for our shared history and the future we’re building together. It was an honor to spend time with the Mayor of Franklin, Glenn Morrill, discussing the path forward for positive change and economic development.
A special thank you to the leadership and community organizing by the Franklin Democrats! Your energy and dedication are a model for so many.

Spring into Warner
Spring Into Warner is celebration of community, local small businesses, and everything that makes District 7 special!
A huge thank you to everyone who organized this year’s festival and to all the volunteers, vendors, musicians, and community members who made the day such a success. Such a beautiful day celebrating the things that make District 7 so special — vibrant Main Street communities where neighbors can come together, support the heartbeat of our local economy - small businesses - and our community organizations. A special thank you to the Warner Democrats for holding your annual plant sale!
Boscawen Listening Session

On May 17, we kicked off our Community Conversation series in Boscawen! These open forums are a neutral place to discuss the issues that matter most, and how our state government needs to be working for our people and communities. Now is the time to build bridges across partisan lines, among our neighbors - to focus on our shared, core values. 2026 is about getting back to the basics - our values, our communities.
Town Dems Corner

We joined Democrats and community members in Andover, Henniker, the Plymouth area, and the New London area to talk about the issues facing our towns — from rising costs and school funding to protecting rural healthcare and supporting local businesses. In every corner of the district, people are looking for practical leadership that understands the challenges rural communities face and is ready to fight for them in Concord.
