Moulton Challenges Markey for Senate | Concord News

Congressman Seth Moulton is launching a bold bid for Massachusetts’ 2026 U.S. Senate race, challenging veteran Senator Ed Markey with a clear message: the Democratic Party needs generational change now, not in six years. At just 46, Moulton argues that Markey’s five-decade career has locked the party into an outdated playbook that contributed to Trump’s two terms. While both men agree on key issues, Moulton’s campaign hinges on replacing a legacy with fresh leadership — a gamble that could disrupt Washington’s status quo and ignite a generational debate.

Sununu Surges in NH Senate Race | Concord News

New Hampshire’s Senate race just exploded with drama as John Sununu officially enters the GOP race, now facing off against Scott Brown. Sununu’s name recognition and 50% favorable rating among Republicans give him a commanding 23-point lead in early polls, while Brown’s 30% approval feels shaky. Brown’s team tries to pivot on Sununu’s past ties to Kasich and Trump, but both have criticized the former president — a risky move in today’s GOP. Analysts say electability is trumping loyalty, suggesting Trump himself might prefer a winner over a loyalist. This race is a clear sign that pragmatism is winning out over past grievances in a party desperate to seize Senate control.
