At the end of the Ohio rally Trump read off a long list of candidates, from around the country, whom he endorses in tomorrow's election.
He glaringly (to me) didn't mention General Don Bolduc, Senate candidate from NH.
And I wondered why - since Trump endorsed Bolduc a few weeks ago.

tl;dr? Ok. Here's the spoiler: "Trump, meanwhile, remains largely unpopular in the Granite State, with unfavorable ratings nearing 60 percent in recent polling conducted by Saint Anselm College. And Bolduc's message—that Democratic policies aren't working—is a popular one.
"It's the same reason that President Biden is not in Manchester right now campaigning for Hassan,"
Put differently, the Independent vote is huge in NH. Being too close to Trump, when Trump isn't popular in NH, isn't very "independent". Probably a wise strategy with the election so close and Bolduc's existing message working so well.
Everyone - including Trump - should wish Bolduc luck. If he can win in NH it will be a huge upset and should make MAGA vastly stronger.
