New Hampshire voters choose Senate and House nominees in 2026 midterm primaries
Voters in New Hampshire cast ballots on Tuesday in Senate and House primaries, setting party nominees eight weeks ahead of the November 3 general election.
New Hampshire held primary elections on Tuesday to determine party nominees for the US Senate and two seats in the US House of Representatives. The contest, held in one of the final states to conduct primaries in 2026, occurred eight weeks before the November 3 general election that will decide control of the US Congress.
In the Democratic Senate primary, a late surge by a progressive challenger created fresh competition for US Representative Chris Pappas in his campaign for the nomination. Republican voters simultaneously selected their candidate for the Senate contest, alongside party primaries across the state's two congressional districts.
