For many Dartmouth freshmen, the first taste of college comes in the form of First-Year Trips. Trips showcase the best of Dartmouth’s community and deeply-rooted traditions, which come to life while stuck in the woods with a group of relative strangers.

After winning the Republican primary with 56.2% of the vote on Sept. 10, Kim Strathdee became the Republican nominee for New Hampshire’s second Executive Council district. Strathdee has sought the office three times before, in 2018, 2020 and 2022. New Hampshire’s Executive Council is composed of five districts that each elect a representative to work closely with the governor, according to previous reporting from The Dartmouth. The council approves the majority of spending from legislative appropriations and confirms gubernatorial nominations. The Dartmouth sat down with Strathdee to discuss her background, motivation for running and what she hopes to accomplish.

In the wake of the 2020 election, Republicans found their new favorite talking point: voter fraud. Claims of widespread non-citizen voting have repeatedly been proven false. Yet, they’ve invigorated GOP lawmakers in state legislatures across the country, giving them a mandate to pass restrictive voting laws in the name of “stop[ping] the steal.” This wave of voter suppression has swept through multiple states, leading to policies that disenfranchise certain voter groups to the benefit of the GOP. Now, it has arrived in New Hampshire.

On March 18, 1949, Dartmouth student Raymond “Ray” Cirrota was killed in his dorm room in Middle Massachusetts Hall when he was pushed by another student, fell and hit his head on the corner of a desk.
