Former New Hampshire Gov Chris Sununu (R) introduced Tuesday he will not be competing Senate regardless of inspiration from nationwide Republicans and President Donald Trump.
“No, I’m not going to run … For me and my family, it’s just not right for us,” Sununu informed New Hampshire’s The Pulse radio program.
Sununu consulted with Trump at the White House lately to talk about a prospective proposal to changeSen Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), who is retiring at the end of following year.
“He came to my office, came to the Oval Office, and met with Chris Sununu, and I support him fully. I hope he runs,” Trump informed press reporters aboardAir Force One “He’s been very nice to me over the last year or so, but no, I hope he runs. I think he’ll win that seat.”
Sununu’s choice to hand down the race comes as an impact for Senate Republicans, that were wanting to prepare a top-tier hire in the Granite State that can win in what is anticipated to be a difficult political midterm atmosphere.
