Voters in New Hampshire elected Republican Kelly Ayotte as governor, defeating Democrat Joyce Craig in the year's most competitive gubernatorial race.
Throughout the race, Ayotte promised to keep New Hampshire on the path established by outgoing GOP Gov. Chris Sununu while critiquing Craig's record.
Ayotte's complex relationship with former President Donald Trump influenced her campaign, where she endorsed him but maintained some distance to appeal to voters.
The race highlighted trust issues, with Craig questioning Ayotte's changing positions on abortion and emphasizing her past Senate voting record.
