New Hampshire GOP Gov. Chris Sununu to Veto Redistricting Map Proposed by GOP

Wendell Husebø 26 May 2022

New Hampshire Republican Gov. Chris Sununu (R) on Thursday promised to veto another redistricting map proposed by the Republican legislature.

“The citizens of New Hampshire will not accept this map, which moves both members of Congress into the same district. Our races have to be fair, which is why I will veto this map,” the governor claimed.

The redistricting map Sununu has promised to veto would benefit Republicans because it would place two radical Democrat members, Reps. Chris Pappas (D-NH) and Ann McLane Kuster (D-NH), in a head-to-head battle in district 2. It would also remove Pappas from his stronghold in Manchester.

With the map set to be vetoed, the Republican legislature must call a special session or the state’s court will take the map into its own hands and away from Gov. Sununu, a move that some Republicans may welcome.

Yes, let's extend 'fairness' to people who would never extend it in return, and would remove Sununu from office in a heartbeat if there were a chance to do so.

Exactly.
