CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire will elect a female governor for the third time in November after former U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte and former Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig won their respective primaries. Current Gov. Republican Chris Sununu is not seeking reelection after four terms. Ayotte is a Republican who was New Hampshire’s first female attorney general. Craig is a Democrat who was the first female mayor of the state’s largest city. The 2nd Congressional District is an open seat this year with incumbent Annie Kuster retiring after six terms. Former White House aide Maggie Goodlander won the Democratic primary, and Republican second-time candidate Lily Tang Williams also carried the day.
