CONCORD — Members of the state’s tourism, restaurant and lodging industry got a chance to hear from the two top candidates running for governor Monday about how they would handle leadership on issues of mutual concern if elected on Nov. 5. They spoke at the Grappone Center in Concord.

Tourism is considered the state’s second-largest economy behind manufacturing, and for some this year has been hard.
