The 1st Congressional District of New Hampshire held an election for the U.S. House of Representatives on November 4, 2014. Republican candidate Frank Guinta challenged and defeated Democratic incumbent Carol Shea-Porter in the general election.[90] While Shea-Porter ran uncontested in the Democratic primary on September 9, 2014, Guinta defeated three other candidates—Dan Innis, Everett Jabour and Brendan Kelly—for the Republican nomination.[91]

New Hampshire's 1st was considered a battleground district in 2014. Shea-Porter was first elected in 2006, but lost to Guinta in 2010 and regained her seat again in the 2012 election, where she defeated Guinta by a 3.8 percent margin of victory. The 1st District also voted Democratic in the 2012 presidential elections, but President Barack Obama won by only 1.6 percent. With 2014 being a third rematch between Shea-Porter and Guinta, this race was viewed as a toss-up.

According to the website Daily Kos, this race was one of nine top-ballot 2012 races that contained Libertarian candidates who received more total votes than was the difference between the Democratic winner and the GOP runner-up.

Campaign themes

2016

The following issues were listed on Shea-Porter's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“
  • Campaign Finance Reform: What if the United States held an election season and no Super PAC money or other hard to trace or totally hidden special interest money showed up on our television or radio, or in print ads? Would voters think they were better off without that money in local, state, and federal elections? Do they think this money is unduly influencing our democratic process, and are they right? The answer to these questions is a resounding yes, and citizens want politicians to clean this mess up now.
  • Jobs and the Economy: Hard work should pay off. I worked my way through UNH at minimum wage jobs and on a factory floor. I’m fighting to build an economy where hard work leads to good jobs, fair pay, and a shot at the American dream.
  • Health Care: Government funds about two-thirds of health care spending. It’s had a large and beneficial role in health care for many decades, through Medicare for seniors; Medicaid to insure low-income Americans; the VA to treat military veterans; the Defense Department to treat active-duty military and their families; and the Children’s Health Insurance Program to insure low-income children. These programs provide an essential safety net for our most vulnerable citizens or for those who defend or have defended us. And millions of working Americans are insured through their employers.
  • Education: The recent trend of slashing school budgets is shortsighted thinking that will result in an even greater long-term problem. The United States was already lagging behind other countries before budgets were slashed after the 2010 Tea Party wave. Money alone won’t solve all of our problems. But to cut funding when we’re already in a very precarious state defies logic and reminds me of the old and wise saying: “Penny-wise, pound-foolish.”
  • Energy and Environment: After years of arguing about whether we are experiencing climate change as a result of our human activities, the debate is over. Climate change is real, and it is impacting our planet and the Granite State as we speak. We need our policy makers in Congress to finally acknowledge the reality of climate change and the effect it is having on our environment.

[98]

”
—Carol Shea-Porter's campaign website

2014

Shea-Porter listed the following issues on her campaign website:[99]

“
  • Veterans: Our veterans have served our country, and we must show our gratitude by honoring our commitments to them. It is not enough to merely talk about supporting our troops. We must show the brave men and women who have served our nation that we appreciate their service by honoring our commitments to them. We must also show that appreciation by ensuring that they have access to the quality health care, education, and other benefits that we promised to them.
  • Jobs and the Economy: Hard work should pay off. I worked my way through UNH at minimum wage jobs and on a factory floor. I’m fighting to build an economy where hard work leads to good jobs, fair pay, and a shot at the American dream.
  • Medicare and Social Security: Beware, anyone who is old or disabled or might ever get old or disabled. If Frank Guinta gets back to Congress, he will once again vote to weaken Medicare and reduce benefits.
  • Health Care: I voted for the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which has brought coverage to millions of Americans and raised the number of insured to the highest on record. More than 40,000 people in New Hampshire gained coverage this year through the state Marketplace, and 50,000 more will get healthcare when Medicaid expands this July.
  • Education: It is time to talk to our families, our communities, and our legislators about the value and necessity of education. It is time to defend investments in education because they are investments in our children's future, our business' future, and our nation's future. It is time to save our schools.
  • Energy and Environment: There are still too many climate change deniers in Congress, and this is preventing the United States from moving forward, even as time is running out to slow down climate change. If Americans want to fix this climate change problem, they will first need to fix Congress in November.
  • Campaign Finance Reform: The Citizens United decision is outrageous, and I hope that the Court does review and overturn its decision. But unless and until the United States Supreme Court acts, there are steps citizens and politicians can take.

Personal Gain Index

Congressional Personal Gain Index graphic.png
See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives
Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Shea-Porter's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $2,002 and $30,000. That averages to $16,001, which is lower than the average net worth of Democratic representatives in 2012 of $5,700,168.36. Shea-Porter ranked as the 403rd most wealthy representative in 2012.[100] Between 2006 and 2012, Shea-Porter's calculated net worth[101] decreased by an average of 2 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[102]

Carol Shea-Porter Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2006$18,223
2012$16,001.00
Growth from 2006 to 2012:−12%
Average annual growth:−2%[103]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[104]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Shea-Porter received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Leadership PACs industry.

From 2005-2014, 31.14 percent of Shea-Porter's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[105]
