2026 New Hampshire U.S. Senate Election Results | Chris Pappas vs. John E. Sununu
On Tuesday, New Hampshire voters cast ballots in a closely watched U.S. Senate race between Democratic nominee Rep. Chris Pappas and Republican nominee former Sen. John E. Sununu.
Rep. Chris Pappas aims to retain Democratic control of the seat held by retiring Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, while Sununu seeks to reclaim the position he lost in 2008.
Both candidates expressed confidence on Election Day, with Pappas stating, "We can have the power in our hands," while Sununu noted, "I've done that job before."
Pappas campaigned to tie Sununu to the Trump Administration and to "confront the damage" he claims was done, while Sununu emphasized his Senate experience standing up to his own party.
The latest Saint Anselm College Survey Center poll showed Pappas leading heading into Election Day, though voters will ultimately decide the outcome of the closely watched contest.
