Scoop: National Republicans jump back into New Hampshire Senate race
By: Josh Kraushaar
The National Republican Senatorial Committee is recommitting resources into the New Hampshire Senate race, according to an NRSC official, just days after the Senate GOP’s top super PAC cancelled its spending on behalf of nominee Don Bolduc.
Why it matters: The strategic shift comes as new public polling shows Bolduc, a far-right election denier, is within striking distance of Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) despite being dramatically outspent. An Emerson College poll released Monday showed Hassan leading Bolduc 48%-45% — within the margin of error.
Driving the news: The NRSC will be spending about $1 million on a new ad financed jointly between the committee and the Bolduc campaign. The spot will begin airing later this week…
The big picture: Biden’s approval rating in the Emerson survey is a lowly 40%. The poll finds Biden and Trump statistically tied in a presidential campaign rematch — in a state Democrats have carried since 2004…
What they’re saying: “Our polling, along with recent public polling, shows that this race is in the margin of error and winnable. The NRSC is proud to stand with General Bolduc. We’re going to win this race so Don Bolduc can bring real leadership back to this Senate seat,” NRSC chairman Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) tells Axios.
