Is Ayotte really considering a run for Senate in 2022? Might be hot air, but either way, it would make much more sense for her to run for governor IMO.
Ayotte will be attending at least her second fundraiser for Republican candidates in three days. New Hampshire Primary Source reported Thursday that she will be the featured guest at an event for Republican Hillsborough County Sheriff candidate Chris Connelly on Aug. 3.
The joint appearance by the governor and the former senator comes amid quiet speculation that both may be eyeing a run for the U.S. Senate in 2022, when Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan will presumably seek a second term.

At least it would force more Democratic spending here.
