Sidney Hall died in 1987 at the age of 66. Hall and her husband had four sons and one daughter. One of their sons, Sidney Hall Jr., is a locally-known author.[6][15] Following her husband's death, Hall solely ran Hall Manufacturing Co., and the company was featured in a White House symposium on small businesses in 1994.[16] Hall Manufacturing Co. closed in 2001.[9]
Early political career
Local politics
During the 1950s and 1960s, Hall became very active in local politics, serving on numerous boards and committees in Brookline, including the board of assessors and the town finance committee.[17] In 1961, Hall was defeated in an election for Brookline library trustee.[18] In 1963, Hall was elected unopposed to the Brookline school board.[19] She was re-elected in 1966, defeating future state representative Eben Bartlett and another candidate.[20][21] In 1969, Hall was re-elected for her third and final term on the school board.[22] She served as the chairman of the school board from 1964 until 1968 and again in 1971. She served a total of 9 years on the school board.[3]
In 1967, Hall ran for the Brookline
Early 1970s
In 1970, Hall ran for the New Hampshire House of Representatives in Hillsborough County's 13th district as a member of the Republican Party.[a][26] Hall had decided to run for state office because she "realized she was not accomplishing what she wanted to" in local office.[10] She was recruited to run by Governor Walter R. Peterson Jr.[1] Hall and fellow Republican Daniel Brocklebank were elected with 43% and 41% of the vote, respectively.[27] In 1972, Hall ran for re-election in Hillsborough County's 12th district,[a] and was elected unopposed alongside fellow Republican Jack Boyd.[28] During the 1970s, Hall held multiple positions in the local Republican Party, serving as a member of the Republican state committee the Hillsborough County Republican Party Executive Committee.[29][30]
1974 state senate campaign
In 1974, Hall ran for the 12th district of the New Hampshire Senate, running to replace retiring Republican incumbent Frederick A. Porter.[31] In the Republican primary, Hall faced fellow state representative D. Alan Rock, as well as Milford town selectman Frederic Fletcher, a former state senator and former member of the Executive Council.[32] During the primary, Hall campaigned via bicycle, cycling a total of 1,000 miles through the 26 towns in the district.[2] Hall won the primary election, narrowly defeating Rock.[33] Despite Hall placing second in her hometown of Brookline and only winning two towns, Amherst and Hollis, both towns gave her large margins. Additionally, she placed second in nearly every other town in the district, offsetting the large margin by which Rock won in Nashua.[8] Official sources conflict on the final vote tally: the New Hampshire General Court officially reported that Hall received 1,544 votes, Rock received 1,485 votes, and Fletcher received 1,198 votes, giving Hall a winning margin of just 59 votes.[34] However, a recount found that the margin was actually 114 votes in favor of Hall, with the town of Amherst alone overcounting 50 ballots in favor of Rock;[35] however, the results of the recount are not officially recorded. Hall's campaign expenditure for the primary was $1,470.[36]

In 1975, Hall became the chairman of the New Hampshire branch of
In 1978, Hall was elected back to the New Hampshire House of Representatives for Hillsborough County's 12th district.[a] Hall and fellow Republican Eliot B. Ware won with 36% and 31% of the vote.[48] Hall and Ware were re-elected unopposed in 1980.[49]
In November 1980, Rock, who had still serving as the state senator for the 12th district, died of cancer just three days after winning re-election.
In 1982, Hall ran for the 11th district of the New Hampshire Senate to replace retiring Republican incumbent Arthur Mann.[55] Hall placed third in the Republican primary, losing to fellow state representative Jean T. White; Hall received 29% of the vote, while White received 40%. The second-place candidate, state representative Richard Amidon, received 31% of the vote.[56] However, Hall won the Democratic nomination as a write-in candidate, receiving 199 votes compared to White's 81 and Amidon's 55.[57] Hall was defeated by White in the general election, receiving 4,668 votes to White's 6,632.[58][59]
Party switch and later political career
Late 1980s and 1990s
In 1986, Hall switched to the Democratic Party, citing the Republican Party's shift towards conservatism.[60] That year, Hall ran as a Democrat for the state house in Hillsborough County's 16th district.[b] Hall defeated incumbent Republican state representative Barbara Fried, who had been facing charges of embezzlement after it was revealed she used her position as Greenville town clerk to embezzle $10,000 in fees.[61] Hall received 642 votes, while Fried received 555.[62] Hall was narrowly re-elected in 1988, defeating Republican candidate Shirley A. Morley by just 54 votes out of 2,274 cast.[63] Hall was re-elected in 1990, defeating former Republican state representative Webster E. Bridges, 56% to 44%.[64]
In 1992, Hall ran for re-election in Hillsborough County's 20th district.[a] Hall and Republican Thomas I. Arnold were elected, receiving 1,488 votes and 1,384 votes, respectively.[65] Hall and Arnold had previously served together on the Brookline school board in the 1960s, where Arnold was the school board's moderator.[20] The two were re-elected unopposed in 1994.[66] In 1996, they were again re-elected, with Hall receiving 46% of the vote and Arnold receiving 36%.[67] In 1996, Hall served as the chairman of the Hillsborough County Democratic Party.[68] In 1998, Hall and Arnold were again re-elected. Arnold received 1,063 votes, while Hall received 1,001.[69]
Hall was an early supporter of Bill Clinton in the 1992 United States presidential election, and was a delegate for Clinton at the 1996 Democratic Party convention.[70] Hall also praised Richard Lugar during the 1996 Republican Party presidential primaries, supporting his tax policy and stating that he seemed honest.[71]
2000s
In 2000, Hall and Arnold were re-elected unopposed.[72] In 2002, Hall ran for re-election in Hillsborough County's 46th district.[c] However, Hall was defeated in the general election, placing fifth with 12% of the vote.[73]
In 2004, Hall was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct at a protest against President George W. Bush in Nashua.[74] Hall, who was 83 at the time, was sitting in a chair outside the designated area for protestors, and was close to the presidential motorcade route. Hall was also holding a sign that said, "Bush is bad for America".[4] After Hall refused to move, three police officers picked Hall up, "chair, cane, and all", carrying her away and arresting her.[2] A photographer captured the arrest, and the incident became national news.[1] Hall was acquitted in September 2004 after Nashua District Court judge Clifford Kinghorn ruled that the evidence provided did not fit the charge of disorderly conduct; Kinghorn stated that "the police had no authority under state law to make Hall move because she wasn't getting in their way".[75] Hall also explained that she had originally written the law that was being applied to her case.[2]
Later in 2004, Hall ran again for the state house for Hillsborough County's 5th district.[c] Hall won, placing fourth with 13% of the vote.[76] In the 2004 Democratic Party presidential primaries, Hall was a supporter of Howard Dean's campaign.[77] Hall was re-elected in 2006, placing fourth and receiving 13% of the vote; Hall narrowly defeated fellow incumbent Donald Ryder, a Republican, receiving just 25 more votes than him.[78]
In 2007, Hall announced her candidacy for chairman of the
Proposed impeachment of George W. Bush
In 2008, Hall again gained national prominence for introducing a bill in the New Hampshire House of Representatives which would petition the
Hall campaigned for impeachment alongside U.S. representative
In February 2008, the House State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs Committee voted 10-5 to recommend that the House not vote for the bill.[87] In April 2008, the state house voted 227-95 to table the resolution, effectively killing the legislation.[92] Some Democrats who voted in favor of tabling the bill, such as state representatives Ray Gagnon and Susan Almy, both of whom said they supported the bill in principle, stated that the bill would take away time that could be spent fixing everyday issues. Bernie Benn, another Democratic state representative, stated that impeachment would be too divisive.[93]
Independent candidacies
Later in 2008, Hall ran for the 12th district of the New Hampshire Senate as an
Death
Hall died on April 26, 2018, of
Tenure
During her tenure with both the Republican and Democratic parties, Hall frequently challenged her party's
While in the state house, Hall's primary issues were the government integrity and campaign finance reform. Hall was also an advocate for mental health issues. She served as the first president of Milford Regional Counseling Services in the 1970s, and later founded Harbor Homes, an organization that provides transitional housing for people with mental illness.[2][97] In the 1960s, Hall was also the president of the Waban Association for Retarded Children.[101]
Economy, regulation, and taxation
In 1989, Hall led opposition towards a bill which would introduce new regulations against
In 1990, New Hampshire's economy collapsed and the state fell heavily into debt.
Education
Throughout her career, Hall supported the breaking up of cooperative school districts. Cooperative school districts, known as school administrative units (SAUs), were school districts consisting of multiple towns. Hall said that wealthier, smaller towns would be forced to disproportionately fund an SAU when grouped with poorer, larger towns. She also said the small towns were effectively trapped in the SAU as long as the larger towns were able to out-vote the smaller towns.[110]
In 1971, Hall sponsored legislation which would establish a volunteer corps to provide assistance and counseling to minors who violated the law.[111] In 1973, she sponsored a bill which would create a scholarship program for college students from New Hampshire. After a first attempt failed in the House, the bill was amended to apply only to students attending in-state colleges. The program would provide matching funds for college students: the state would allocate 25 cents for every dollar given by a private scholarship.[112] During her 2008 state senate campaign, Hall stated that she opposed funding education from property taxes, instead supporting a "pay-as-you-go" model.[60]
Government integrity and reform
In 1972, Hall supported an election reform bill which would restrict candidates from working in polling places in which their name was on the ballot. She was the only representative from a small town to support the bill. Introduced by state representative Chris Spirou, the bill had public support, but faced heavy opposition in the House after being "verbally beaten into the ground by many state representatives from small towns who double as election officials in their home communities".[113] In her support for the bill, Hall said that it could allow for more people to become involved in the political process.
While with Common Cause in 1977, Hall supported a state ethics commission to watch over the state legislature, stating that at the time New Hampshire was the only state that didn't have conflict-of-interest legislation.
