MANCHESTER, N.H. — At Manchester West High School in New Hampshire, some students, like Seanna Kelly, 17, embrace being in the heart of the presidential campaign. She has been attending stump speeches with her mom since 2016.
That search for transparency is a recurring theme among students interviewed at the Manchester, N.H., high school — which might be unsurprising, given that the state was almost too close to call on election night 2016. Clinton won New Hampshire, but the hairline margin made something very clear: The Granite State is as deeply divided as it is decisively purple. And this election year, a shift in the state’s demographics could widen that margin.
Her friend, Amber Partlow, 17, said she has stronger opinions about health care than any other topic, and tied it into her concerns about the cost of living and New Hampshire’s minimum wage of $7.25 an hour. His classmate, Kevin Shegani, 18, is another Sanders supporter. Although he told WGBH News he doesn’t agree with Sanders on all issues, he listed health care as his top concern.
Garang Kuol told WGBH News that he prefers to get his news wrap-ups from programs like"The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and"The Daily Show with Trevor Noah." Seanna Kelly uses social media like Instagram and the BuzzFeed app to stay on top of what's happening.
