Gov. Chris Sununu of New Hampshire holds a coronavirus pandemic briefing
There’s plenty of speculation that Sununu, who was overwhelming reelected in November to a third two-year term as Granite State governor, may challenge Hassan in 2022 rather than run for reelection as governor.
Sununu’s once dismissive talk of a Senate bid appears to be moderating. It’s something that I’m considering, the governor said last week in a radio interview on Good Morning New Hampshire, about a possible 2022 Senate run. He added that he’s definitely open to it.
Sununu, the son of former Gov. John H. Sununu and younger brother to former Sen. John E. Sununu, remains very popular in New Hampshire. The survey indicates his approval rating as governor stands at 72%, with a 55%-19% favorable/unfavorable rating. Hassan’s favorable/unfavorable rating in the new poll stands at 42%-38%.

A new study of civil legal needs in New Hampshire assesses the kinds of civil legal problems faced by Granite Staters and their experiences seeking low and no cost legal help. The civil legal needs assessment was sponsored by the New Hampshire Supreme Courtâs Access to Justice Commission.
âThe Judicial Branch was pleased to partner with other funders, the Commission, and the civil legal aid programs to make this needs assessment possible,â said Associate Justice James Bassett of the New Hampshire Supreme Court. âIt will help improve our understanding of the kinds of civil legal needs experienced by low-income Granite Staters and the obstacles they confront when seeking affordable legal help.â
Study assesses New Hampshire’s legal aid needs

The New Hampshire Access to Justice Commission released its 2021 report on the civil legal needs of Granite Staters and its findings reaffirm what was already known – poverty itself creates problems that require legal assistance.
“Low-income people, older adults, and people with disabilities frequently experience multiple legal problems at once,” the report states.
The New Hampshire Access to Justice Commission was created by the NH Supreme Court with the purpose of implementing changes to improve citizens access to the courts. One of the commission’s duties consists of identifying and assessing current and future needs for access to justice in civil matters.
