Chris Pappas courts socialist support to keep New Hampshire Senate seat blue
Democrats in New Hampshire responded promptly and cheerfully after Chris Pappas won the democratic senate nomination by defeating a socialist candidate. Pappas and leading state Democrats emphasized unity and enthusiasm amid concerns that the open senate seat, vacated by retiring Senator Jeanne Shaheen, could be targeted by Republicans. The GOP candidate, John E. Sununu, who previously held the seat and comes from a prominent political family, poses a potential challenge in the upcoming race.
