President Donald Trump’s endorsement will be put to the test once again Tuesday in New Hampshire’s primaries, where liberal Democrats are also looking to cap an ascendant primary season with additional victories.
Granite State voters are among the last in the country to choose nominees for November’s elections, and Tuesday’s contests will set the matchup in one of this year’s most competitive Senate races.
Trump is hoping his preferred candidate, former GOP Sen. John Sununu, prevails in the primary. On the Democratic side, Rep. Chris Pappas is looking to fend off a democratic socialist opponent for his party’s Senate nomination.
