In 2006, Shea-Porter was a liberal community activist who had never held public office.

Shea-Porter, who had won some fame for being escorted from a George W. Bush rally wearing a T-shirt that read "Turn Your Back On Bush," ran on a strong anti-Iraq War message.

In addition to opposition to the Iraq war, Shea-Porter campaigned on a platform of increasing the minimum wage and universal healthcare.

In the five-way Democratic primary, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee put its weight behind state legislator Jim Craig.

Shea-Porter won the September 12, 2006, primary with 54% of the vote.

She held the seat from 2007 to 2011, 2013 to 2015, and 2017 to 2019.

2008

Shea-Porter was re-elected to a second term in November 2008, defeating Bradley for the second time, winning by 52% to 46% margin.

The Concord Monitor in 2008 changed its endorsement, which had gone to Bradley in 2006, to support Shea-Porter, citing her positions in favor of increased minimum wage, ending the Bush tax cuts, and veterans issues.

During her 2008 re-election campaign, she reversed course and requested financial support from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

The Committee enrolled Congresswoman Shea-Porter in their "Frontline" program "which helps vulnerable incumbents with fundraising and campaign infrastructure."

According to Roll Call, New Hampshire is a swing state and could be susceptible to national political trends.

The Rothenberg Political Report considered the election a “Toss-up.” Mayday PAC, a super PAC seeking to reduce the role of money in politics, announced its endorsement of Shea-Porter because of her support of campaign finance reform.
