Let&#8217;s \u2064take a closer look at the key races in \u200bNew Hampshire.<\/p>\n<h3>Gubernatorial Race<\/h3>\n<p>The race\u2064 for governor has taken an unexpected turn with Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH) announcing that he will not seek another term. This surprising development has prompted the Cook Political Report to change \u200cthe race&#8217;s classification from &#8220;solid Republican&#8221; to\u2064 a &#8220;toss-up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Since Sununu&#8217;s \u2064announcement, two Republicans have thrown their hats into the ring to become the state&#8217;s next <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/u-s-corporations-consider-blocking-monetary-support-to-gop\/\" title=\"U.S. corporations consider blocking monetary support to GOP\">chief executive<\/a>. Former Sen.\u2063 Kelly Ayotte and Former New Hampshire Senate President Chuck Morse have announced their candidacies, seizing the opportunity left by the current governor&#8217;s departure.<\/p>\n<p>On the Democratic side, Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig and state Executive \u2063Councilor Cinde Warmington have also declared their intentions to run \u2063for governor in \u200bthe past two months. It&#8217;s worth noting that the Granite State \u200clast elected a Democratic governor in 2014 when then-Gov. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) was reelected.<\/p>\n<p>Sununu secured a resounding victory in his last \u2063<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/new-poll-finds-newsoms-job-approval-ratings-plunge-amid-looming-recall\/\" title=\"New Poll Finds Newsom\u2019s Job Approval Ratings Plunge Amid Looming Recall\">gubernatorial election<\/a> in 2022, winning by a landslide with 57% of the vote compared to his \u2062opponent&#8217;s 41.5%.<\/p>\n<h3>House Races<\/h3>\n<p>New Hampshire currently has two\u200b Democratic-held House seats, but Republicans see an opportunity to make gains. The Cook\u200d Political Report has identified one of these seats, held by\u200d Rep.\u2063 Chris \u200bPappas (D-NH), as a potential pickup for the GOP in the 2024 elections.<\/p>\n<p>Russell Prescott is the sole Republican challenger to \u200cPappas, having previously\u2063 run in 2022 but lost in the Republican primary \u200cto \u200dKaroline Leavitt. While the Cook Political Report currently rates the race as &#8220;likely Democrat,&#8221; the entrance\u200d of more challengers could make\u200b it a\u200b more competitive contest.<\/p>\n<h3>Presidential Race<\/h3>\n<p>New Hampshire \u200chas not been favorable to Republican \u200bpresidential candidates for over two decades. The last time a Republican won the state&#8217;s four Electoral College votes was in 2000.<\/p>\n<p>According to polling from the Saint Anselm College Survey Center, the leading Republican presidential candidates, former\u200c President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), trail President\u2063 Joe Biden in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-republican-chuck-grassley-has-14-point-lead-over-democrat-abby-finkenauer\/\" title=\"Poll: Republican Chuck Grassley Has 14 Point Lead over Democrat Abby Finkenauer\">hypothetical general election<\/a> in the Granite State, with\u2064 Biden leading\u2064 49% to 40%.<\/p>\n<p>In 2016, Trump\u2062 narrowly lost New Hampshire to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by a\u2063 slim\u2063 margin of \u20630.37%, and in 2020, he faced an even greater defeat, losing\u2064 to Biden by a margin of 7.35%.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO\u2062 READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Hampshire&#8217;s 2024 general elections are set to be a fierce battle, as usual.
