Former Biden official wins New Hampshire seat to succeed Kuster

Maggie Goodlander, a former Justice Department official under President Biden who’s married to national security adviser Jake Sullivan, will succeed Rep. Annie Kuster (D-N.H.) in the House, according to Decision Desk HQ.

Goodlander ran against Republican Lily Williams, a rental property manager, for New Hampshire’s 2nd Congressional District, which includes a large swath of the state, including Berlin, Concord and Keene.

Kuster announced earlier this year she would retire from her seat, leaving it open. The district went for President Biden by close to 9 points in 2020.
