The Senate: Sununu’s Vital Choice By Kyle Kondik
The New Hampshire governor’s decision looms large over the 2022 map.
KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE
— Even as Senate elections become more and more about a state’s presidential partisanship, the individual decisions of candidates matter a lot. There are a number of important candidate choices that helped define recent Senate cycles.

— While Republicans will target vulnerable Democrats in states that are more competitive at the presidential level than New Hampshire, they very well may struggle to produce a candidate in those states as proven as Sununu.
