Former New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte announced Monday she is running for governor after the state’s chief executive, Republican Chris Sununu, said last week he will not seek another term.
"We are one election away from becoming Massachusetts in New Hampshire, and I'm not going to let that happen," she said. "We have something very special in New Hampshire — no income (tax), no sales tax, education freedom is so important in our state. So I'm running for governor to make sure that New Hampshire remains safe, prosperous and free."

The announcement makes Ayotte the second Republican to jump in the race since Sununu’s decision.
Former New Hampshire Senate President Chuck Morse said last week he is running to “build” on the governor's successes.
