Sununu Strongest GOP Challenger for Senate in 2022 2/25/2021 February 25, 2021 SUNUNU STRONGEST GOP CHALLENGER FOR SENATE IN 2022 By: Sean P. McKinley, M.A. [email protected] Zachary S. Azem, M.A. 603-862-2226 Andrew E. Smith, Ph.D. cola.unh.edu/unh-survey-center DURHAM, NH - New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu is currently the strongest Republican challenger to incumbent Maggie Hassan for U.S. Senate in 2022. Sununu and Hassan are ed in a hypothe cal matchup and former Senator Kelly Ayo e is also sta s cally ed with Hassan. Re red General Don Bolduc and poli cal commentator Corey Lewandowski trail Hassan by double-digit margins. Sununu con nues to enjoy high favorability ra ngs in the state, while Granite Staters are divided in their view of Hassan. Residents are also divided on Ayo e, Bolduc is largely unknown, and Lewandowski is largely unpopular in the state. These findings are based on the latest Granite State Poll*, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. One thousand eight hundred and sixty-one (1,861) Granite State Panel members completed the survey online between February 18 and February 22, 2021. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 2.3 percent. Included were 1,676 likely 2022 general elec on voters (MSE = +/- 2.4%). Data were weighted by respondent sex, age, educa on, and region of the state to targets from the most recent American Community Survey (ACS) conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, as well as party registra on levels provided by the NH Secretary of State and 2020 elec on results in NH. Granite State Panel members are recruited from randomly-selected landline and cell phone numbers across New Hampshire and surveys are sent periodically to panel members. 2022 U.S. Senate Elec on Now that the 2020 elec on has finally been se led, candidate and pundits are looking ahead to the 2022 U.S. Senate elec on in New Hampshire. Republican Governor Chris Sununu said he has not ruled out challenging Senator Maggie Hassan for the seat. If the elec on were held today, 48% of likely 2022 voters say they would vote for Sununu, 46% would vote for Hassan, 2% would vote for another candidate, and 5% are undecided. Both candidates have overwhelming support from their respec ve par es - 92% of Democrats say they would support Hassan and 95% of Republicans would support Sununu.

  • Autism Society Public Policy and Advocacy Newsletter - February 22, 2018
    Autism Society Public Policy and Advocacy Newsletter - February 22, 2018 BUDGET AND APPROPRIATIONS On February 12, President Trump transmitted his Budget proposal for Fiscal Year 2019 to Congress. The Autism Society provided a summary analyzing the impact on programs that support people with disabilities immediately following its release. The Budget makes significant cuts to numerous programs that support people with disabilities and other vulnerable people. The President’s Budget is just the first step in year-long budget and appropriations process. In the week before the budget was released, congressional leaders came to an agreement on a top-line number for discretionary spending for Fiscal Year 2018 that began on October 1, 2017. This deal will allow the Congress to finalize the 12 annual appropriations bills, hopefully before the next continuing resolution (CR) expires on March 23. Congress will then have to start working on passing annual appropriations bills for the Fiscal Year 2019. The budget deal to lift the caps on discretionary spending will help smooth this process in an election year. The Autism Society will be monitoring this process closely and advocating for the highest possible funding for programs important to the individuals and families we serve. AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT Last week, the House of Representatives passed the ADA Education and Reform Act of 2017 (H.R. 620) by a vote of 225- 192. This bill prevents lawsuits over architectural barriers violating the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) unless an individual provides "specific enough" notice and allows 120 days for a business to correct that barrier. Please use this linkto see how your Representative voted on the ADA Education and Reform Act of 2017 and thank members that voted against the bill.

  • In Florida, Marco Rubio Looks Set to Win a Senate Race That Will Have a Lasting Impact on US Politics
    In Florida, Marco Rubio looks set to win a Senate race that will have a lasting impact on US politics. blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2016/09/16/in-florida-marco-rubio-looks-set-to-win-a-senate-race-that-will-have-a-lasting-impact-on-us-politics/ 9/16/2016 In the first article in our new series covering key Senate races in the 2016 election cycle, Rolda Darlington takes a close look at the race between the incumbent Republican Marco Rubio and Democrat Patrick Murphy. She writes that despite Murphy’s apparent talent for career politics, Rubio looks set to win an election that will have important implications for how the next president governs- whoever they may be. This week the Congressional primary season came to an end as Delaware, New Hampshire, New York, and Rhode Island voters went to the polls to cast their ballots. It has been a contentious and arduous primary season in 2016, not made any easier by the impending Presidential election. One state that remains on the radar, for a number of reasons, is Florida, which held its primary elections on August 30th. In that election, Florida voters cast their lots for who would compete for the upcoming Senate race. In what is expected to be one of the nation’s most expensive Senate races this year, the victorious contenders, representing the Republican and Democratic parties were Marco Rubio and Patrick Murphy, respectively. Florida’s Senate race is one of the nine competitive battleground races, which could determine which party controls the upper chamber of Congress after the November election.

    GOVERNORS The National Mood and the Seats in Play: Understanding the 2016 Gubernatorial Elections By Jennifer M.

Republicans already held 31 governor- ships to the Democrats’ 18—Alaska Gov. Bill Walker is an Independent—and with about half the gubernatorial elections considered competitive, Republicans had the potential to increase their control to 36 governors’ mansions. For their part, Democrats had a realistic chance to convert only a couple of Republican governorships to their party. Given the party’s win-loss potential, Republicans were optimistic, in a good position.

  • Kelly Ayotte Occupation: U.S
    Name: Kelly Ayotte Occupation: U.S. Senator, New Hampshire As a former New Hampshire Attorney General and now U.S. Senator, you’ve had the opportunity to see our crumbling justice system from multiple perspectives. How do Republicans keep the “tough on crime” mantra while addressing critical funding issues and high recidivism rates? For starters, with over $17 trillion in debt, we need to get our fiscal house in order. Spending on wasteful or duplicative programs diverts money from more urgent priorities. I’ve worked at the federal level to address a problem that we are seeing all across the country – the fact that our nation’s jails are becoming de facto mental health facilities. Having worked as a prosecutor and as state attorney general, I know that there are gaps in both our existing mental health and judicial systems – which is why I’m co-sponsoring the Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Act. This bipartisan legislation would help ensure law enforcement has the tools they need to identify and respond to mental health issues. It would also continue support for mental health courts and crisis intervention teams – getting defendants the treatment they need and stemming recidivism. Some credit you as replacing Sen. Lieberman within the “Three Amigos” as the newcomer to this prominent gathering of Senate foreign policy titans. What have you learned from your short time working with Senators McCain and Graham? No one can replace Joe Lieberman! He was one of my designated mentors when I arrived in the Senate, and I benefitted tremendously from his guidance.
