NH ELECTION: NBC News has issued an update as votes are being counted in the closely watched NH GOP Senate primary.
Republicans see Democratic incumbent Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire as beatable in the general election, now just eight weeks away. But a strong competitor in the GOP contest is Bolduc, a retired Army brigadier general who some in the party believe is too far to the right for some swing voters in the general election. Morse, the president of the state Senate, has been backed by the Republican establishment.
LACONIA, NH - SEPTEMBER 10:- Republican candidate for Senate, retired United States Army brigadier general Don Bolduc, center, during a campaign rally at an American Legion Hall. Polls show Bolduc, who deneis the legitimacy of the Biden presidency, leading former acting governor Chuck Morse in The New Hampshire primary, which will take place Tuesday, September 13.
Federal and state officials and Trump's own attorney general have said there is no credible evidence the election was tainted. The former president's allegations of fraud were also roundly rejected by courts, including by judges Trump appointed. By contrast, Sununu called Bolduc a conspiracy theorist and suggested he could have a tougher time winning the general election.
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell acknowledged the challenge last month, saying his party may be more likely to end Democrats' narrow control of the House than the Senate. He bemoaned"candidate quality" as a factor that could sway some outcomes in his chamber.
