  • The Koch's Criminal Justice Hypocrisy in New Hampshire

At the state and national level, the Kochs use their unlimited resources to influence policy to suit their political and personal needs while hurting middle class and working families. The policies they favor include cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy; reducing and eliminating regulations to protect workers, consumers, and the environment; privatizing and cutting both Social Security and Medicare; and cutting other programs, including Pell Grants for college. For decades, the Kochs and their network of dark money political front groups have been pushing the Koch agenda in New Hampshire — perhaps more than any other state in the country — which has benefitted billionaires like the Kochs at the expense of Granite Staters. In 2016, New Hampshire will continue to be on center stage in American politics with the First In The Nation primary, a top- tier Senate race, marquee Congressional contests, an open governor’s mansion, and a number of hot button issues in the limelight. At the same time, the Koch network has promised to spend nearly $900 million to buy elections for candidates who will do their bidding for them. The Kochs themselves admit they “expect something in return” for the millions they spend propping up their candidates, but for candidates, backing from the Kochs comes with a high price tag.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

  • NH Education Freedom Accounts 1. Children in NH Need a Flexible
    NH Education Freedom Accounts 1. Children in NH need a flexible approach to access the education options and services that work best for their individualized needs. 2. Family receives a multi-use education grant. 3. Parents choose the learning experiences that meet their child’s unique personal needs. Why New Hampshire needs Education Freedom Accounts It is imperative that we empower individual families by giving them the support they need to create stable and continuous learning for their children. Education Freedom Accounts ensure and support a high quality, flexible, and specialized publicly funded education for New Hampshire Students. What are Education Freedom Accounts used for? NH Education Freedom Accounts are grants that re-think education and empower New Hampshire families to direct their child’s state education funding to create learning experiences that are as unique as their child. Education Freedom Accounts Grants can be used to pay for expenses like: • K-12 Online Learning • Courses, curriculum and manipulatives • Tutoring • K-12 tuition • Computer Hardware • Internet hotspots and connectivity • Education Software • Textbooks • Standardized Test fees Who is eligible? An “Eligible Student” for an Education Freedom Account means a resident of this state that is eligible to enroll in a public elementary or secondary school. Here are some examples: • Currently attending a New Hampshire school that is remote or hybrid • Currently assigned to a New Hampshire public school with assessment proficiency below 40% • Currently attending a New Hampshire public school, including a chartered public school; nonpublic school; • A kindergarten or first grade student • A student in a micro-school or pod • A sibling of a student with an education freedom account Education Freedom Account Administration A Scholarship Organization approved under RSA 77:G will administer Education Freedom Accounts.
