To The Daily Sun,
Can't figure this out or make any sense of it. We elected a Republican governor. The Republicans in New Hampshire have a House majority (222-178) and a Senate majority (16-8). But yet we have four Democrats representing us in the U.S. House and Senate. Does this make sense to anyone? What this means (since most votes are along party lines both state and U.S. Congress) is that we utilize a Republican perspective at the state level — yet we support a Liberal agenda at the federal level (which trickles down to the state). It has been this way for multiple election cycles.
According to CNN election results, Kelly Ayotte got 75,973 more votes than Joyce Craig. Yet Chris Pappas/Maggie Goodlander got 56,472 more votes than Russell Prescott/Lily Tang Williams. Did that many people cross over party lines? Did that many people cast their ballot for Ayotte and then go over to the next column and check the box for Pappas/Goodlander, and then go back and vote for their Republican state representative?
Something is not quite right here.

Big DNC money, all the commercials on TV. I think I saw 2 for Tang Williams. DNC spent big Dollars on advertisement and the RNC let their candidates swing in the air
