Senate Race

There is a senate seat opening up in this election for New Hampshirians, but it doesn't look as if it will be much of a contest. Senator John Sununu, the Republican is being challenged by 3-time Democratic governor Jeanne Shaheen. Early polling gives Shaheen a double-digit lead. Since 2006 when Sununu was elected the Democrats have pretty much taken over the state, with a Democratic governor and a house full of Democrats.
