A high-stakes Senate race unfolds in New Hampshire as a Democratic incumbent and a former Republican senator face off in a special election to replace the retiring senator. The contest pits a current House member against a seasoned political figure with deep ties to the state’s political establishment. With control of the Senate hanging in the balance, voters will decide whether to maintain Democratic representation or shift the seat to the Republican column. The outcome could have significant implications for the balance of power in Congress.
Democratic Rep. Chris Pappas and former Republican Sen. John E. Sununu compete Tuesday to succeed New Hampshire's retiring Sen. Jeanne Shaheen.
