Some interesting notes on races in NH where Annie Kuster is retiring.
The Green Pages listed her replacement suitors as:

Democratic Member of Congress Ann McLane “Annie” Kuster - apparently not a candidate
• 27 March 2024: “... I will not be seeking re-election in 2024 ....” • FEC H0NH02181; 31 Dec 23; Tot $1,550,266; Dsb $684,666
Candidate list (7) - 119th Congress
Democratic former Executive Councilor Kevin Colin “Colin” Van Ostern • FEC H4NH02332
Colin Van Ostern is running for Congress in New Hampshire’s 2nd District because the only way to fix what’s broken in our country today is to make it work for everyday people and middle class families again. Instead of letting fringe extremists or powerful interests rig the system for themselves, we need to put people first. That starts with protecting reproductive rights – from IVF and birth control to abortion access – no matter your zip code and cutting household costs like housing, higher ed, healthcare and childcare.

Republican Robin Ng • FEC H4NH02316
LinkedIn page: Customer Service Manager at Upper Valley Ride to the Airport (cannot find any other information on him/her — found several pictures of Robin Ngs, all were men in foreign countries and obviously not the candidate)
Republican Jason Daniel Riddle • FEC H2NH02252
He’s tan, rested, and ready after serving jail time for his role in the Jan. 6 riots. Now Granite Stater Jason Riddle is planning another run for Congress.
Riddle, a Cheshire County Republican, plans to challenge Second Congressional District Rep. Annie Kuster (D-Hopkinton) in 2024. He tried to run in 2022 but couldn’t get his campaign off the ground. He blames a lack of support from the New Hampshire Secretary of State’s Office and Republicans for his failure to launch — not to mention the fact that he was behind bars.
. . .
Now that he is a free man again, Riddle is gearing up for another run. Though he is currently not allowed to leave New Hampshire as part of his probation — including travel to Washington, D.C. — he is sure he will be able to serve if elected.

Republican Lily Tang Williams • FEC H2NH02260; 31 Dec 23; Tot $119,036; Dsb $6,003
American by choice.
I grew up under Mao’s cultural revolution in China and fled communism for the freedom of the United States. Now, I fear the country I love is becoming the country I left.

Independent Ryan Donnelly • FEC H4NH02308 (cannot find any other information on him)
D+2 district, winnable though not a *likely* win this year even without an incumbent.
Williams is the most serious candidate for the GOP at the present time, but is going to need vastly greater resources to overcome the leftward lean of the district and the fact that the ultra-liberal Democrat is going to raise & spend a fortune in NH-2.
