These bad candidates threaten Republican Senate success

Greitens is one of many problem candidates for Republicans across the country.

Up in New England, New Hampshire Republican Don Bolduc is another. New Hampshire has a weak selection of Republican Senate candidates because Kelly Ayotte and Chris Sununu aren’t running. However, Bolduc stands out among the bunch for a couple of reasons. He called the state’s popular incumbent Republican Gov. Chris Sununu a Communist Chinese sympathizer and has claimed that the 2020 presidential election was rigged (spoiler alert: It wasn’t).

Meanwhile, incumbent Maggie Hassan, a Democrat, is a strong candidate for her party. She was the state’s Senate majority leader, then governor, and beat an incumbent Republican in the 2016 Senate race. In a state that hasn’t voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 2000, Bolduc’s brand of politics probably won’t resonate with voters.
