New Hampshire Voters Select Pappas and Sununu in Senate Primary
Democrat Chris Pappas and Republican John Sununu emerge as their parties' nominees for the open U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Jeanne Shaheen.
New Hampshire voters on Tuesday selected Democrat Chris Pappas and Republican John Sununu as their parties' nominees for the state's open U.S. Senate seat, according to a report by CNBC.
The seat is open because incumbent Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, a Democrat, is retiring when her current term ends in January, CNBC reported.
The primary contest also included other candidates, including Scott Brown and Karishma Manzur, according to CNBC, though Pappas and Sununu advanced as the respective Democratic and Republican nominees.
Pappas and Sununu are now set to face each other in the general election for the Senate seat, a race that is expected to draw national attention given the seat's open status following Shaheen's retirement announcement.
Further details on the primary results, including vote totals and the full field of candidates, were not immediately available.
