Former New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu has announced that he will not be running for Senate, despite encouragement from national Republicans and President Donald Trump. Sununu cited personal reasons for his decision, stating that it was not right for him and his family. This comes as a blow for Senate Republicans who were hoping to secure a top-tier candidate in the upcoming midterm elections. However, it is good news for former Massachusetts GOP Senator Scott Brown, who is considering entering the race.
On the Democratic side, Rep. Chris Pappas has already announced his candidacy to replace retiring Senator Jeanne Shaheen. Additionally, first-term Rep. Maggie Goodlander is also considering a run for the Senate seat. The race is expected to be highly competitive in the Granite State.
This announcement by Sununu adds an interesting twist to the Senate race in New Hampshire, as Republicans and Democrats scramble to secure strong candidates in what is expected to be a challenging political environment. With the support of President Trump, Sununu’s decision not to run opens up opportunities for other contenders to enter the race and compete for the Senate seat.
