HAMPTON BEACH, New Hampshire — Gov. Chris Sununu (R) is prepared to endorse Don Bolduc for Senate should the upstart Republican, who has labeled him a “Chinese communist sympathizer,” win the party’s nomination in Tuesday’s primary.
“I’ll endorse whoever the nominee is, and support him, of course I will, no question,” Sununu told reporters Saturday while walking the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival, an annual beachside event that draws thousands of locals and tourists to this New Hampshire seacoast hamlet. Bolduc, 61, a retired Army brigadier general, has led in public opinion polls and is considered the front-runner in the primary.
It’s eyebrow-raising statements like these, which the two-time Senate candidate makes regularly, that have Republican leaders in Concord and Washington convinced he cannot beat Sen. Maggie Hassan in the midterm elections, even in a favorable political environment. It’s why Sununu and other top Republicans are backing New Hampshire Senate President Chuck Morse in the primary.
Sununu spoke with reporters Saturday afternoon between shaking hands with well-wishers and posing for pictures with voters as he toured merchandise booths and sampled seafood served by local restaurants along Hampton Beach in the southeast corner of New Hampshire, just on the other side of the border with Massachusetts.
Perhaps it was good vibes from these interactions, or possibly the near-perfect 80-degree weather, that put Sununu in a mood to dismiss Bolduc’s attacks on his personal integrity and say he would have no problem backing the populist Republican against Hassan. The governor even said he believed Bolduc could beat the senator, although he emphasized Morse is a more viable candidate with a greater likelihood of ousting Hassan.
