November Surprises
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) announced that he will not run for U.S. Senate against Sen. Maggie Hassan (D) in 2022 and will instead seek re-election, WMUR reports.
Sununu had led Hassan in some early polling.
When asked if he’d consider running for president, Sununu said: “I haven’t ruled out going to Washington. Just not as senator right now.”
