This month’s roundtable takes a look at the current state of the 2026 election focus. What local, regional, and national issues are on the minds of Granite Staters?

The word “affordability” is thrown around A LOT, but what does it mean, and what are voters looking for in this discussion?

What role do the Government Shutdown, ICE, and the Iran Conflict play in the early part of the campaigns?

The panel also took a side trip to discuss the recent court decision against social media companies, as well as the effects of cell phone bans in schools.
