Trump's endorsement put to test in New Hampshire primaries
Developing
In Short: President Trump's endorsement will be tested in New Hampshire's primaries, where both parties face competitive races.
President Donald Trump’s endorsement will be put to the test once again Tuesday in New Hampshire’s primaries, where liberal Democrats are also looking to cap an ascendant primary season with additional victories. The state’s competitive House seats are seeing a divisive Democratic battle, with Pappas leaving one open and another facing a primary challenger from the left.
In the Republican race, former GOP Senator John Sununu is running, hoping to prevail with Trump’s support. Sununu represented New Hampshire in the Senate from 2003 through 2008 after serving in the House. The crowded field of candidates in both parties’ primaries suggests a competitive race could be on the horizon in the fall.
