america can have quite a big impact on the balance of power here in washington, d.c. you know, many eyes are on new hampshire and of course, this question. who will take on incumbent democratic senator maggie hasan in the general? will it be don bulldock, who pushed trump s election lies or state senate president chuck morse who was the backing of establishment republicans. we re also closely watching a battle between two trumpers in new hampshire s first congressional district, both matt mowers and carolyn levitt. they both worked in the trump administration. now, levitt actually backs trump s stolen election claims. according to a new analysis from 538, about 60% of americans will have an election denier on the ballot this fall. that s quite a number. and an estimated 118 election deniers in house races and eight election doubters have at least a 95% chance of winning. what a range, first of all, and the idea of all of the ways we can essentially have a synonymous way of th
