Samuel Petali completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Petali's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Fund our schools! It is up to the legislators in this state to resolve the school funding crisis and it remains on their desk. We have to work to get this resolved.
- NH need access to affordable housing! Corporate interests in a shrinking housing and rental supply has driven costs up. I want to work to understand the roadblocks and work to resolve them.
- Legislation has not kept up with the digital age. I want to advocate for consumer rights in a constantly shifting market that is under reviewed and running wild. Your digital identity is your identity, what happens when that is stolen by no fault of your own? There's little requirement when a company loses your information that you've entrusted it to. Further there's no ownership in digital products despite their equivalent cost to physical product. I want to work to understand these issues and what can be done to protect NH residents and advocate for true ownership of digital property.
