Kelly Ayotte Elected NH Governor in Tight Race

News summary

Former U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte has been elected as New Hampshire's governor, defeating Democratic candidate Joyce Craig in a highly competitive race. Ayotte's campaign focused on maintaining low taxes and public safety, echoing the policies of outgoing Republican Governor Chris Sununu, who endorsed her. Despite Craig's efforts to emphasize reproductive rights and housing issues, Ayotte's portrayal of Craig as soft on crime and taxes resonated with voters. Ayotte, the first Republican woman to win the governorship in New Hampshire, also faced criticism for her past anti-abortion stance and support for former President Trump. Polls leading up to the election showed Ayotte with a slight lead, which she maintained to secure her victory. This race was one of the most contentious and closely watched, highlighting significant divides over economic and social policies in the state.
