Primary Field Expands for State Senate Seat

An interesting GOP primary is shaping up for NH Senate District 11, which covers Amherst, Merrimack, Milford and Wilton.

A vacant seat for the state Senate district that represents Amherst, Merrimack, Milford and Wilton is generating a crowded primary field so far.

Sen. Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, announced this spring he would not seek a sixth term.

The state filing period opened June 4 and goes until June 13. To date, the Republicans filing papers with New Hampshire Secretary of State William Gardner for Senate District 11 are:

  • Gary Daniels of Milford
  • Daniel Dwyer of Merrimack
  • Dan Hynes of Merrimack
  • Maureen Mooney of Merrimack
As of June 5, no Democrat had filed candidate papers.
