美国众议员克里斯·帕帕斯在新罕布什尔州民主党参议院初选中击败进步派挑战者卡里什玛·曼祖尔,获得党内提名1。这次初选因现任三届民主党参议员珍妮·沙欣的退休而举行,沙欣现年79岁1。作为温和派建制派候选人,帕帕斯获得了包括副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯在内的民主党高层支持1。帕帕斯自2019年起在众议院任职1。
以色列问题在这场初选中发挥了重要作用1。帕帕斯曾表示本杰明·内塔尼亚胡"不是美国值得信赖的盟友",并希望他在以色列10月选举中落选1。他拒绝了企业政治行动委员会资金,但未直接回应来自亲以色列捐赠者的支持1。
在即将举行的大选中,帕帕斯将对阵共和党提名人、前参议员约翰·桑努1。这场参议院争夺被视为民主党夺回上院的关键一战1。值得注意的是,新罕布什尔州共和党人自2010年以来未曾赢得参议院席位,当时获胜者凯利·艾奥特现已成为州长1。
Congressman Chris Pappas has secured the Democratic nomination for New Hampshire's U.S. Senate seat, defeating progressive challenger Karishma Mazumdar in the primary 1. The race emerged after three-term Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen, 79, announced her retirement 1. Pappas, who has served in the House since 2019 1, positioned himself as a moderate establishment candidate and received endorsements from Democratic leaders including Vice President Kamala Harris 1.
The general election matchup will pit Pappas against Republican former Senator John Sununu 1, in a contest that Democrats view as crucial to retaining Senate control 1. Israel's relationship with the United States became a significant issue during the primary. Pappas stated that Benjamin Netanyahu "is not a trusted ally for America" and expressed hope that Netanyahu would lose in Israel's October elections 1. While Pappas rejected corporate political action committee funding, he did not directly address support from pro-Israel donors 1. Republicans in New Hampshire have not won a Senate seat since 2010, when Kelly Ayotte prevailed—she now serves as the state's governor 1.
