"Kelly Ayotte Declares Bid for New Hampshire Governorship"

Former Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte has announced her candidacy for governor of New Hampshire, following Governor Chris Sununu's decision not to run for re-election. Ayotte, a former attorney general in the state, aims to prevent New Hampshire from becoming like Massachusetts and has already garnered widespread support among Republicans. The race has been shifted to a tossup by the Cook Political Report. Democrats plan to focus on abortion protections in their criticism of Ayotte, while she emphasizes tackling crime and supporting law enforcement officers.
