New Hampshire voters are set to choose party nominees for an open Senate seat, with John Sununu and Scott Brown among the Republican contenders and Chris Pappas leading the Democratic field. The article also previews House and gubernatorial contests.
Republicans will choose a Senate nominee from a field that includes former senators John Sununu and Scott Brown. The article says Sununu’s campaign had raised $4.1 million to Brown’s $2.2 million, and reports that President Donald Trump backed Sununu. On the Democratic side, Rep. Chris Pappas is described as the frontrunner, with support from former Vice President Kamala Harris and other state Democrats. A University of New Hampshire poll showed Pappas leading at the end of August.
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is not seeking reelection, and Pappas’s Senate campaign leaves an open House seat. The article names several candidates for that seat and says Gov. Kelly Ayotte faces Democrat Cinde Warmington in November.
