Buckey to stay in Senate race despite Shaheen
Democratic US Senate candidate Jay Buckey says he will stay in the race even if former three term Governor Jeanne Shaheen enters the Democratic primary as she is expected to later today.
“I look forward to a vigorous discussion of the important issues in a primary, and I’d welcome Jeanne Shaheen into the race if she decides to run," Buckey said in a campaign statement.
Buckey, a Dartmouth Medical School professor and former astronaut, is already struggling to raise money and pick up support compared to the two others in the race so far.
