New Hampshire is one of only two Republican-held governorships on the ballot in 2026 in a state that voted for Democrat Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. The race is a key barometer of whether Republicans can hold ground in competitive, purple states during a midterm election.

📊 In hypothetical Pappas vs. Sununu general election matchup, race is virtually tied: Pappas 45%, Sununu 44%, with undecided voters. Pappas leads Scott Brown 46% to 28%.— Emerson College Polling, 2026-03-21
This open seat in a slightly blue state is crucial for Senate control. With New Hampshire backing Democrats in federal elections but Republicans controlling state government, the race could determine narrow Senate majorities.
