From Feb 5 through Feb 11, the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism traveled to New Hampshire for the week leading up to the First-in-the-Nation presidential primary.
Our coverage is aggregated below, and our dispatches and features were also published by news outlets across the country.
As we questioned candidates, supporters, and surrogates, we considered public input that we gathered online and in person using an approach called the Citizens Agenda, which you can read more about here and here.

Thanks to Poynter for highlighting our plans
