Sheriff Election — Grafton County, New Hampshire
Grafton Sheriff · the arena · the Upper Valley hires this desk · 2026 is the regular two-year
This is Side Two
This page is the arena for this office, this cycle. Unique teaching for the job lives on the office twin. The county as a place is taught at Grafton County.
It is not a campaign. Names belong on the official sample ballot. No crown.
Two years on the river
RSA 653:1: two years. Grafton is on the default. SOS table: 2022, 2024, 2026, 2028, 2030. Tuesday, 3 November 2026. Primary Tuesday, 8 September 2026. Takes office RSA 653:10. Coös, next north, is four-year from 2024 and has no 2026. Do not paste Coös onto North Haverhill. The presidential primary is a different year. The Governor is 2026 — a different oval.
Sample ballot wins
Do not take names from a Dartmouth thread.
- Official candidate list / sample ballot — Secretary of State
- City and town clerks — Haverhill, Hanover, Lebanon, Plymouth, Littleton, Lincoln, and the rest

If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
What you are hiring
One two-year Sheriff for this county: civil process, court security and transport at North Haverhill, warrants, mutual aid. Not the jail superintendent. Not Hanover Police. Not Vermont. Read the office page before you read a mailer. Vacancy mid-term is the county convention. Age seventy vacates the chair.
Notch, river, papers, rights
A wrong paper or a mistreated transport: official complaint door and the courts. Relief in a Notch blizzard is this county’s mutual aid first. Service of process is a person at a door in Orange. Due process does not pause at the Connecticut. Equal protection from Lyme to Campton.
