May 28, 2020
PORTSMOUTH — State Sen. Martha Fuller Clark announced she will not seek re-election and will retire at the end of her current term.
“While deciding not to run again has not been an easy decision – one that I have been wrestling with for months because I love what I do – I know it is the right decision,” she said in a statement released Thursday morning. “It is hard for me to believe that 30 years ago this June was when I first signed up to run for the New Hampshire Legislature as a state representative, from Ward 2 in Portsmouth.
Fuller Clark, 78, has served 12 years in the Senate, having been first elected in 2004. She lost to Republican Nancy Stiles in 2010, but was elected in 2012 to a newly redrawn district representing Portsmouth and other Seacoast communities. Before the Senate, she was a member of the House for 12 years.

NEWFIELDS – State Executive Councilor Chris Sununu, gubernatorial candidate, has trick-or-treated with his children at Gov. Maggie Hassan’s house, herself a candidate for U.S. Senate.
With a population of just under 1,700, Newfields is a small town political hotbed, boasting incredibly high voter turnout rates as well as two distinguished residents.
Both Hassan and Sununu call Newfields home. Gov. Hassan, who looks to replace incumbent Republican Kelly Ayotte in the U.S. Senate, closed on a home in March 2015. Sununu, who vies to take the corner office that Hassan is vacating, has lived in town since 2006.
