CONCORD, N.H. — New Hampshire voters selected candidates in primary elections on Tuesday, August 28, determining who will compete for various state and federal offices.
One significant race involved the U.S. Senate seat currently held by retiring three-term Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen. The outcome of this particular primary contributes to a broader national contest. Political analysts identify this race as one of several across the country that could influence the balance of power in the U.S. Senate. This potential shift would occur during the second half of President Donald Trump's final term in office.
The primary results establish the matchups for the general election in November. These races will ultimately decide the composition of New Hampshire's delegation to Washington and its state legislature.
