The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

New Hampshire voters will choose Senate nominees Tuesday for the open seat held by retiring Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, creating a competitive race in a state Democrats have held in the chamber for 16 years. Rep. Chris Pappas leads the Democratic primary against Karishma Manzur, a medical scientist and democratic socialist who has not committed to endorsing him if he wins. Former Republican Sens. John Sununu and Scott Brown are the leading contenders in an eight-candidate GOP primary for a seat central to the Nov. 3 midterms.
