New Hampshire Primaries Test Trump and the Left
Developing
In Short: New Hampshire’s primaries on Tuesday will test President Trump’s influence with his party and the strength of the Democratic left's momentum.
A divisive Democratic battle is also unfolding in one of the state’s competitive House seats, which Pappas left open, while another House Democrat is facing a primary challenger from the left.
With a crowded field of candidates running in both parties’ primaries, the race could be competitive in the fall, as President Trump’s endorsement is put to the test once again.
Here’s what to watch Tuesday in New Hampshire, where poll closing times vary by municipality, ranging from 7 p.m.
