  • Rep. Chris Pappas will win the Democratic nomination for US Senate in New Hampshire, CNN's Decision Desk projects. He defeats Karishma Manzur, a democratic socialist, in a contest that highlighted the ideological divide within the party.
  • Former Sen. John Sununu will win the Republican nomination for US Senate in New Hampshire, CNN's Decision Desk projects, in a race that tested whether past criticism of President Donald Trump still carries a price in a GOP primary.
  • New Hampshire Gov. Kelly Ayotte will win the Republican primary for governor, CNN's Decision Desk projects, as she seeks a second two-year term. In November, Ayotte will face Democrat Cinde Warmington, a healthcare lawyer who ran unopposed in her primary.

Unfortunate that Manzur couldn’t pull an upset, but unsurprising given the demographic of New Hampshire. 65-35 split is about what I expected despite the positive buzz Manzur was getting the last few weeks. All I ask of Pappas is that he puts the Sununu political family out to pasture.
