Republicans are staring down the possibility that a far-right candidate will prevail in New Hampshire’s GOP Senate primary, complicating what should be a prime pickup opportunity in the upper chamber.

Retired Army Gen. Don Bolduc (R), who’s accused the state’s governor of being a “Chinese communist sympathizer” and falsely claimed former President Trump won the 2020 election, has been leading a field of 11 GOP candidates to take on Sen. Maggie Hassan (D) in November.

In a sign of growing concern among Republicans in the state, Gov. Chris Sununu (R) made a last-minute endorsement of Senate President Chuck Morse (R), seen as the other leading GOP contender, in the hopes of shifting the race’s trajectory.

“This time there’s a real question, a concern that people like me have, that Gov. Sununu have, that if we nominate Bolduc our chances of winning this seat are greatly diminished,” said Fergus Cullen, former chairman of the New Hampshire GOP and a supporter of Morse.

Voted this morning @ 7:15
Very light turnout. Hardly anyone there. My choice for state Rep was the only candidate outside the polling place.

IF WE turn out, OUR candidates will win the primary.

PLEASE GO VOTE.

Could they talk some sense into the Rino voters of PA, SC? That would be a great start. If we stop supporting rinos, they will stop running them after they lose a few million dollars.

...falsely claimed former President Trump won the 2020 election

Why do we have to hear this over and over, when the real Big Lie is that "Biden won fair and square".
