Democratic Governor John Lynch cruised easily to his third two year term on Tuesday.
He defeated his challenger, Republican State Senator Joe Kenney with more than 70% of the vote.

Kenney tried to convice voters that spending under Lynch has been out of control.
And last night, in his concession speech, the republican said his supporters had not heard the end of him.
"We've been very proud of what we did on a shoestring budget. And we're going to be back, and we're going to be committed to public service. And you can guarantee that we're going to hold state government accountable here in the next two years. We'll be a voice for New Hampshire. And remember, let's keep New Hampshire, New Hampshire."
Kenney reiterated his call for a 10% across the board budget cut.
The Governor blames the state's fiscal problems on the worsening economy.
