Democrats are once again meddling in a GOP primary — this time in a competitive New Hampshire House district, with the goal of elevating a far-right candidate over a moderate backed by GOP Gov. Chris Sununu.
The intervention in the race to take on Democratic Rep. Annie Kuster comes from an unlikely source: Democrats Serve, a new PAC that backs Democratic candidates with public service backgrounds. The group has booked some $94,000 on cable TV to boost Bob Burns, a pro-Trump Republican who is campaigning as the “only pro-life candidate” in the Sept. 13 primary.
“Meet Bob Burns, the ultra conservative candidate for Congress,” a narrator says in the 30-second spot, which includes a picture of Burns and former President Donald Trump. “Burns follows the Trump playbook on immigration, the border and guns.”
