New England is the term used to refer to a region of the United States. The statesmaking up New England are Massachussetts, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Maine. This is one of the oldest regions of the United States to be colonized by the English, and was originally settled mainly by Puritans and other religious dissidents seeking to freely practice their religion.

Currently, New England tends to vote Democratic, both locally, on a state level, and nationally, and currently, there is only one Republican member of the House of Representatives from New England.

Both US Senators from Maine are Republicans; Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins[1]. Both Senators from New Hampshire are Republicans: John E Sununu and Judd Greg[2].
