New Hampshire Dems with AIPAC backing easily win primaries against far-left candidates

Two New Hampshire Democrats, Rep. Chris Pappas and Rep. Maggie Goodlander, easily won their primaries against far-left challengers who accused Israel of "genocide" in Gaza. Both candidates received significant backing from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), with Pappas securing over $230,000 and Goodlander over $118,000. Pappas, who won the nomination for Senate, emphasized his support for Israel's right to exist and a two-state solution, while Goodlander, renominated in the 2nd Congressional District, stated, "My support for Israel’s right to exist and to defend itself as a Jewish and democratic state is ironclad." Andrew Smith, director of the University of New Hampshire Survey Center, noted that "the progressive insurgency, which was based on younger voters, didn’t materialize," attributing it to lower primary turnout among younger demographics.
