NH Gov names Gregg replacement

Bonnie Newman has been named to replace New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg. The Republican Gregg will resign if the Senate confirms him as the new Commerce Secretary.

Governor Lynch indicated that Newman will not run for a full term in 2010. Democratic Rep. Paul Hodes is expected to declare his candidacy shortly.

This seat will be one of the top pickup ops for Dems in 2010 and is part of the favorable landscape for further Democratic gains.
