One-time GOP rising star reveals how she will work with Trump admin after victory in key race
Kelly Ayotte’s Victory in New Hampshire Gubernatorial Election Signals Return to National Spotlight
After a convincing victory in the New Hampshire gubernatorial election last week, Kelly Ayotte’s national profile is once again on the rise. The Republican governor-elect, who was arguably the biggest winner for the GOP on Election Night, is staying focused on her home state.
In a recent Fox News Digital interview at her transition office in Concord, N.H., Ayotte emphasized that her primary goal is to be a champion for the people of New Hampshire. She plans to prioritize economic issues, education, mental health, and housing when she takes office in January.
Ayotte, a former state attorney general, previously served in the U.S. Senate and was known for her leadership on national security and foreign policy. Despite losing her re-election bid in 2016, she is now gearing up to lead New Hampshire as its governor.
With the support of outgoing Governor Chris Sununu, Ayotte secured a resounding victory in the gubernatorial race. She plans to continue Sununu’s agenda, focusing on economic prosperity, personal freedom, and the overall well-being of New Hampshire residents.
Looking ahead, Ayotte expressed her willingness to work with the Trump administration on various issues affecting the state. She highlighted the importance of securing federal funding for New Hampshire and ensuring that the state’s voice is heard in Washington.
Although Ayotte had previously distanced herself from then-GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump in 2016, she has since congratulated him on his recent election victory. As she prepares to lead New Hampshire, Ayotte remains committed to representing the interests of her constituents and working collaboratively with the federal government.
With her experience in Washington and her dedication to serving New Hampshire, Ayotte is poised to make a significant impact as the state’s next governor. Her victory in the gubernatorial race signifies a return to the national spotlight for this seasoned politician, who is ready to lead her state with passion and enthusiasm.
