when you compare colin van ostern to the failed person chris sununu is -- chris sununu's family customers that have gone. that is the real leadership there. josh: i have no many -- i have no idea of how many customers go there. chairman horn: are the top of the ticket, they have a president who has been running 30 years. and she is still unable to generate the kind of enthusiasm and unity and commitment from her own base that she needs to win. you want to talk about colin van ostern, he is a paid political operative who came to the state to work for ray buckley and jeanne shaheen and maggie hassan. his resume of business is incredibly thin. he does not have any significant accomplishment onto which she can base service, who has run a major new hampshire business, has 800 employees, supports 800 jobs in our state, and has been on the executive council and a leading voice on it for trying to maintain a fiscally responsible new hampshire policy. people in new hampshire no chris sununu. they know who he is and what he stands for. i am not worried. josh: that said, democrats have 20 years. jos

as you mention, chris sununu does hold a slight lead over frank edelblut. the fact that edelblut has s m surprising. and the state rep is not conceding. they say that edelblut might make a statement later this morning. sununu pulled a lot of support. he is expected to hold on. >> it is exciting. it is exciting. look, it is close. there's still, you know, a good amount of votes to come in. they will be counted. we feel good. you've got to count all of the votes. it is part of the new hampshire way. it wouldn't be a good primary. >> what i can tell you is not going to be the next governor. ray: now the democratic race was decided with colin van o'tern easily winning over marchand and connolly. he pledged to keep new hampshire a no sales tax state, attract higher pays job, and try to extent the commuter rail service. his experience proves he's ready to lead the gran s make in the next two years will determine the economic future for the next decade to come. i know we can move our state forward the new hampshire way. we will leave politics at the door. we'll bri

and then recently, chris sununu taking over with a narrow lead in the polls. a roller coaster for these folks. the party is not. a close race. he is not planning to speak until there is an outcome. we will bring you that as soon as we hear from frank edelblut. certainly a lot of emotion. his supporters are iron up, hoping for victory -- are fired up, hoping for victory. amy: this is what you would -- in derry field. the decorations are down, the supporters are gone. this is the first time ted gatsas has ever lost an election. mayor gatsas's concession speech was open ended noting that it's just too close to call between sununu and edelblut. he congratulated jeanie forrester on running a great race and said he will support whoever the nominee is for the republican party. no regrets from this campaign . gatsas said they left it all on the fielen voters all over the state. analysts said name recognition for gatsas was low outside the southern tier of the state and that likely hurt him. >> we have to be as tough and losses as in victories. you get up and you play

chris sununu, thank you. we will be back with john to looking back at the week that was. -- with john distaso, looking narrator: over and over it's been their agenda: anything to defund planned parenthood. kelly ayotte and washington republicans voted 6 different times to defund planned parenthood. they're on a crusade to block services new hampshire women and families depend on: cancer screenings, basic women's healthcare. kelly ayotte and washington republicans have put defunding planned parenthood at the top of their agenda... and it's time for that to change. i'm maggie hassan josh: welcome back to "closeup." joined here by my partner at wmur john distaso. have not substance what was your biggest surprise? john: definitely frank edelblut. we knew he was running a good race, but we did not realize the breadth of his support. when you have low turnout, he really rallied the conservative case and almost won. josh: a lot of people were saying he is running a good campaign, but i do not think anybody predicted

chris sununu does hold the slight edge over frank edelblut. the fact that edelblut has too much support is the state rep is not conceding. the campaign says edelblut might make a statement later this morning. psi knew knew pulled a lot of support. he is expected to hold on. >> it is exciting. it is exciting. i mean -- look. it is close. there's still a good amount of votes to come in. they will be counted. we feel very good. we're very optimistic. we have to count all of the votes. it wouldn't be a good new hampshire primary. >> what i can tell you next governor. ray: the democratic race was decided fairly early in the evening with colin van ostern easily winning his party's nomination over steve marchand and mike connolly. van ostern pledging to fight to keep new hampshire a no sales tax state, try to extend commuter rail service. he says the experience proves he's ready to lead new hampshire. >> the decisions that w years will determine our state's economic future for the next decade to come. i know we can move our state forward the new hamp

my other takeaway was chris sununu, who played roberto -- rope-a-dope. no one israeli sure if he is the front runner. josh: that is the thoughts. each other. >> they did a little, but i thought it was good of chris sununu. not a particularly overwhelming performance, but when gases is being -- gatsas isbeing put on the defense, it is good for chris sununu. this story played out for four days. lo saying manchester is not a city under siege. for forrester, it is a good thing. and earned media. when you're the candidate with one quarter the amount of money ted gatsas has, for jeanie forrester, that is good for politics. josh: they talk a lot about policy but did not get to talk core republicans who are popular with the rotarians. but it was mainly forrester and gases. edelblut card out very hard positions. we talked about guns and people who are mentally ill. he a very pure positions. that will win votes among staunch conservatives. how well that transits beyond that -- kevin: internally, from other republicans doing pulling this week, they were telling me

more than 90% of the vote in chris sununu lead frank edelblut. >>> who is to blame for accidently dropping flares over a new hampshire town. >> a mission to walk across the country. we will introduce you to a pair of veterans with an inspirational message. >> and the big announcement today regarding cars in boston. >> and if you are sad to see big papi retire, you may want to buy a new keepsake. the candle designed by the sox slugger hear what it smells like. >> good morning. a summertime heat today we are climbing into the 80s with sunshine this morning. we should be around 08 by the time we get to -- 80 by the time we get to midday. building clouds is the prep for sunshine we will go through the hour by hour timeline when we come back because it's important night live look at at gillette tonight and there will be a couple storms to track i will have that timeline when we come back.
