Don Bolduc, a retired brigadier general and election denier, secured the Republican nomination for New Hampshire’s Senate race.
Bolduc, the favorite before the Associated Press called the contest for him, will face off against Sen. Maggie Hassan in November. Hassan has a significant fundraising advantage due to the GOP’s costly primary fight.
Late in the primary campaign, outside money poured into the race, mostly in favor of his opponent, New Hampshire Senate President Chuck Morse. But Bolduc also received outside help, becoming the latest Republican to get outside help from Democratic-affiliated groups seeking a weaker general election opponent. Senate Majority PAC, an outside group aligned with Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, spent money boosting Bolduc in hopes that he would be an easier opponent for Hassan.
