New Hampshire Democrats Sound an Alarm

September 6, 2026 · 5:41 am ET · Leave a Comment

“Two months before the midterms, Democrats are devoting vast financial resources to red states like Ohio, Iowa and Texas, daring to hope their party can reclaim the Senate with victories in a series of states President Trump won in 2024,” the New York Times reports.

“New Hampshire would like a word.”

“In recent weeks, a tide of anxiety has risen among Democrats in the Granite State who are concerned that a party with big dreams of expanding its map could let the seat left open by the pending retirement of Senator Jeanne Shaheen, a Democrat, slip from its grasp.”
