The question wording is Citizens Count’s. The “aligned answer” column is the answer a DSA-aligned candidate would give, taken from the plank named beside it. Anything Marcia Hayward wrote under an answer is quoted in full, unedited. On one question the sentence Marcia Hayward wrote under the box settles the answer differently from the box itself, and the score goes with what they wrote, not the box. Those rows show both, and say why.
| Question | Their answer | Aligned answer | Counted as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Broad-based income taxShould NH add an income tax on earned income?Raise Taxes to Expand Government · Economic Democracy"Voters from both parties have never shown an interest in broad based taxes. A representatives job is to reflect the will of his/her constituents." | Against | For | Not aligned |
| Business tax decreaseShould New Hampshire lower business taxes?Raise Taxes to Expand Government · Economic Democracy"The State has been cutting business taxes for a decade and downshifting the costs onto the local taxpayer in the form of increased property taxes. If we are to get property tax relief, this downshifting has to end." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Fund the Office of the Child AdvocateShould New Hampshire restore funding for the Office of the Child Advocate?Grow the State Budget · Economic Democracy"This office protects children who have no one else to advocate for them. It is just common sense to care for our youth." | For | For | Aligned |
| School district tax cap mandateShould state law cap how much local school districts can increase their budget each year?Grow the State Budget · Economic Democracy"this is another Republican distraction from the State's ranking of being dead last in support of public education. This bill, HB1300 will further constrain local school districts and make it harder for the district to meet the needs of its students. It will lock in existing funding disparities that will further widen the gap between communities and the quality of education for students across the State. I hope all votes say NO to this bill on Nov 3rd" | Against | Against | Aligned |
| "Education Freedom Account" programDo you support the “Education Freedom Account” program, which gives students access to the per-pupil share of state school funding to spend on private school or home school expenses?Defend the Public School Monopoly · Freedom To Flourish"Public education is what the taxpayers support, not providing it to children who have never been in the system and to families that can afford private schools. Eliminating the income eligibility requirement will make the program unsustainable and further cripple the funding for public education." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Public school open enrollment with limitsShould New Hampshire allow at least 10% of students in each school district to enroll in a different public school, regardless of where they live?Defend the Public School Monopoly · Freedom To Flourish"Open enrollment does nothing to solve the adequate and equitable funding of public education. Many school districts have agreements with other districts in an effort to provide a wide range of opportunities to students. Example: Laconia's Huot Technical Center is an agreement with 11 districts. Transportation, and special education needs are addressed in this form of arrangement. this is a much better solution than open enrollment." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Majority of public school funding through local property taxesDo you support New Hampshire’s current system of public school funding, with about two-thirds of total funding coming from local property taxes?Defend the Public School Monopoly · Freedom To Flourish"The State is nationally dead last in its support of public education. It currently funds approximately 21% of the cost. The national average is 45%. NH must do better. This is nothing to be proud of." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Proof of citizenship for newly registered votersShould New Hampshire require new voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate or passport, when registering to vote?Loosen Voter Eligibility Rules · Democracy For All"This piece of legislation is a solution in search of problem that does not exist. Our elections are safe and efficient. I say that will extreme confidence because I am the selectman for ward 3"Ticked Other, scored as Against. She rejects the requirement outright as unnecessary.
