Ayotte continues to lead in both the primary and general elections.
In a historical first, if Ayotte wins, she would be the first popularly elected Senator of French-Canadian decent.
You’re forgetting Rhode Island Republican Sen. Felix Hebert (1929-1935).
I am planning to vote for her in the primary although somebody on here said she was a “McCain RINO” and Ovide Lamontagne was the only “true conservative” in the race. Ovide didn’t exactly cover himself with glory when he ran for governor a few years ago and his lawyering for the Bishop does not sit well with a lot of people, me included, and I’m not a Catholic.
Gravel from Alaska was French Canadian and I am sure there are others.
