With Senate control at stake, New Hampshire Republicans are poised to nominate a Trump humper

MANCHESTER – New Hampshire closes out primary season Tuesday with a head-to-head between a Republican moderate and a far-right candidate who analysts say could endanger Republicans' chances of reclaiming the Senate majority.

Republicans are poised to nominate Don Bolduc, a Trumpy candidate who has expressed support for repealing the 17th Amendment, which allows the direct election of senators. He has also espoused former President Donald Trump's groundless claims the election was stolen.

The winner of the Republican primary will take on incumbent Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan, whose seat is seen as crucial to the Republican roadmap of retaking control of the Senate chamber.

If Bolduc takes the nomination on Tuesday, his electability could be a roadblock for Republicans heading into November, according to experts.
