Republican Chris Bright, second from left, running for the First Congressional District of New Hampshire, visits the 405 Pub & Grill in Laconia on Friday during a tour of local businesses. Bright was joined by Rep. Mike Bordes (R-Laconia), left, who is on the ballot for mayor in the upcoming city primary. Vying for the seat vacated by incumbent Chris Pappas, who hopes to secure Sen. Jeanne Shaheen's post after she said she will not seek reelection, Bright spoke with patrons like Colleen, right, and Chris Longtin about life, politics and everything in between on stops along the tour. Bright said the general consensus when speaking to business owners was the struggling economy made for a slow summer. He said this was important for him to hear firsthand so he can help, if elected in 2026. (Bob Martin/The Laconia Daily Sun photo)
