and honestly, I don't understand it either. Chris Sununu was reelected as governor as well and he openly bragged about being a Trump guy.

I've only been in New Hampshire for ten years, so I still don't get their politics. Our former governor Maggie Hassan is now our junior senator, so both our senators are Democratic women. I don't understand how Sununu got such a huge win. The best I can guess is the political ads against the Dems had to do with tax threats (sales tax or income tax).
