The New Hampshire Republican Party has released videos from a 1987 television program that they say shows former Gov. Jeanne Shaheen (D-Madbury) has changed her position on nuclear energy, videos the Shaheen campaign says were "taken out of context."

The videos show Shaheen debating former House Speaker Marshall Cobleigh on WMUR's Close-Up. At the time Shaheen was the campaign manager for Paul McEachern's gubernatorial campaign.

Pam Manney (R-Goffstown), a candidate for Hillsborough County Commissioner, has released a list of endorsements three weeks before the Republican primary.

The list includes the former speaker of the New Hampshire House Marshall Cobleigh, retired Executive Director of the New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority Claira Monier and Judith MacDonald, the outgoing Hillsborough Registrar of Deeds.

Editors note: This is a daily summary of news about the U.S. Senate race between U.S. Sen. John Sununu (R-Waterville Valley) and former Gov. Jeanne Shaheen (D-Madbury).

Today in the Senate race it was all about op-eds and speeches.

One of the best primaries in New Hampshire history was for the United States Senate in 1950, when Wesley Powell, a 34-year-old World War II veteran challenged 70-year-old incumbent Charles Tobey in the Republican primary.  Powell was the conservative candidate, while Tobey came from the centrist faction of the GOP.
