In what Granite State Republicans hope is not a preview of November, Democrat Bobbi Boudman won Tuesday’s special election for Carroll County District 7, defeating Republican Dale Fincher 51 percent to 47 percent in a district that voted Republican by more than 13 points just 16 months ago.

Boudman received 2,207 votes to Fincher’s 2,043 out of 4,331 ballots cast across Ossipee, Tuftonboro, and Wolfeboro.

The result immediately drew national-style spin from Democrats.

“Bad day for the NHGOP,” posted state Democratic Party communications staffer Marissa Hebert. “Boudman lost her race in 2024 in this same district by 13.6 points. Tonight she won by 2.4 points. A 16-point swing from 2024.”
